The first step after engagement is to work with our client to prepare a compelling Program Submission.  We conduct an in-depth analysis of historic experience, underwriting and exposure details, pricing and rate history. We work with our clients to develop a realistic business plan and pro forma including premium projections, hit ratio assumptions, market conditions and competitors. During this process, we focus on understanding our client needs and priorities, critical to identifying potential carrier partners.

We have received accolades for our program vetting and program submissions. We are the initial contact with markets, and remain actively engaged throughout the due diligence process, including contract negotiations.

We understand and clearly communicate the evolving standards of the marketplace and assist program managers in the development of the systems and processes needed to meet those standards. Our brokers have cutting edge skills, are well-experienced, and are an active participant in carrier meetings, renewals and negotiations post close.
