New service launched

DAC Beachcroft and Innovation Group have teamed up to supply a new motor claims handling service.

Innovation Group will provide first notification of loss (FNOL) and repair management services, while DAC Beachcroft’s motor claims team will handle the claims. The two organisations will tender jointly to secure new claims handling work.

DAC Beachcroft director of strategic programmes Chris Charles said: “Although this is early days, we are confident that being able to offer a more integrated claims handling solution for clients will give us a competitive advantage in a marketplace where demands are constantly changing. Innovation Group is a highly respected and experienced supplier of FNOL services and we’re looking forward to working with them on future bids.”

Innovation Group sales and marketing director Ian Bowen said: “We’re committed to providing efficient and relevant commercial models to our clients. It’s no secret that insurers are facing tougher challenges than ever before; new risks and audiences. We need to be sure that we’re continuing to innovate so that our customers can stay ahead of the game. This partnership with DAC Beachcroft is another leap toward fulfilling these commitments.”
