How an Insurance Company Streamlined Document Management with iAccessPlus

Challenge

A mid-sized Canadian insurance company managing a large portfolio of property, automobile, and specialty insurance products was struggling with outdated, manual document workflows. Their regulatory forms, policy wordings, and client-facing documents required constant updating for distribution across departments and broker networks. The challenges included: 



1. Manual Document Updates – The company relied on typesetters and design staff to make content changes, leading to long turnaround times and increased costs. 

2. Risk of Errors – Manual rekeying introduced opportunities for formatting and compliance errors. 

3. Inconsistent Branding – Documents lacked uniform branding, reducing professionalism and causing confusion for clients and brokers.
