Software Solutions Partners (SSP) is set to launch a series of integrated products via the Imarket portal by the end of 2006.

The software house said it would begin an "aggressive" roll-out of integrated facilities, including shop, office, pubs and restaurants, tradesman, commercial combined, property owners' and small fleet, following the completion of its Imarket integration project.

It is expected to commence live Imarket trading pilots in May with shops, the first product to go live.

Norwich Union said it also aimed to deliver a minimum of three package products through SSP before year end.

Laurence Walker, SSP managing director, said: "With SSP customers currently processing around £2.5bn of gross written premium of commercial lines business, accelerating Imarket implementation through SSP systems will bring significant benefits to the channel."

Martin McLachlan, managing director of Polaris, said: "These are very ambitious plans, but with most of our insurers having tested their products via the imarket infrastructure and the remainder expected to complete within in a matter of weeks, we look forward to working with SSP."

' AXA and Acturis are developing a full-cycle integrated commercial combined and motor fleet products. They hope to be the first to launch via Imarket.
