Vertafore announced it has been selected by Florida-based AssuredPartners as the InsurTech provider for its Project Fusion. With offices in 38 states and two countries, the project will bring the AssuredPartners’ operations onto a single platform to provide a fully integrated, enterprise-wide InsurTech solution.
Market-leading InsurTech backed by strategy for long-term partnership
The agency issued a competitive RFP to source an InsurTech partner to help consolidate its technology platforms, standardize workflows and processes, align common financial and business reporting, improve the experience of their end-insureds, integrate seamlessly with essential third-party tools, and digitize client and carrier data. AssuredPartners turned to Vertafore’s comprehensive, integrated suite of solutions—backed by the company’s industry-leading strategy for agency modernization—to fulfill those goals.
“As the fastest-growing independent insurance agency in the U.S., we were looking for an InsurTech provider that could deliver market-leading solutions today and had a plan for long-term investments in future innovation,” said Tom Riley, president and incoming CEO at AssuredPartners. “The Vertafore team didn’t just meet 100% of our requirements—they presented us with a technology roadmap that will pave the way for our continued growth and success.”

Integrated solutions to drive efficiency
AssuredPartners will adopt an integrated suite of Vertafore’s agency management, workflow, connectivity and client experience solutions.

AssuredPartners will go live on Commercial Submissions later this year.
“Vertafore came to us with a vision for a dynamic partnership, from their portfolio of innovative products to a clear strategy for long-term success and modernization,” said Joe Guercio, executive vice president of operations at AssuredPartners. “Their relationship- and customer-first focus mirrors what we believe in at AssuredPartners, making Vertafore the clear choice over other bidders.”
