Gaining the client’s perspective through AI-driven transformation 

EMC Insurance Companies (EMC), a U.S. property and casualty insurer with over 2,200 employees, distributes its products exclusively through independent agencies. Seeking to modernize its technology infrastructure, EMC partnered with an AI-powered cloud transformation platform to develop a scalable cloud strategy aligned with its growth objectives. Together, they analysed critical challenges and mapped out the capabilities required for sustainable scaling. By migrating to a cloud-native architecture and implementing the Guidewire Insurance Suite, EMC established more efficient operations and gained a competitive advantage, all powered by intelligent automation and data-driven insights.

Interview with:
Erik Keninger
Vice President,

EMC Insurance Companies

What was the challenge?

“EMC was heavily dependent on mainframe and legacy technologies, and our business processes were not standardized across branches. This made it difficult for us to act quickly in the marketplace, deliver an exceptional customer experience and share data effectively across the enterprise.”

Describe the solution delivered by the AI community of solvers.

AI-driven transformation worked closely with our business and IT leaders to modernize our technology architecture. While moving our operations to the Guidewire Cloud Platform, the team applied deep cloud and industry expertise to help us build an agile future-state that properly accounted for our roadmap, delivery timelines, and dependencies. The design and implementation gave us a more flexible and engaged presence in a competitive marketplace.

How does the solution blend the strengths of technology and people?

Our project team consisted of people from many different teams and functions who came together to turn our ideal cloud transformation into reality. With new digital capabilities, we were able to integrate multiple platforms and simplify and improve the way we work. To help us succeed, AI-powered transformation leveraged over 20 different automations, saving 30,000 hours of effort over an 18-month period.

Where or how did innovation and unexpected ways of thinking come into play?

“This transformation has positioned our business to grow. We can extend our operations to additional states, add lines of business and expand our overall ecosystem with less friction, and we improved our speed to market. Furthermore, we continue to make significant improvements in data accessibility, operational efficiency and customer satisfaction. As a result, we’re on track to reduce technical debt and enterprise risk.”
