CARVILL SIGNS AS LATEST CLIENT FOR Q.KNOW
World Leading Reinsurance Intermediary Brings Best-in-Class IT to Client Service
NEW YORK – September 21, 2006 – Q.Know Technologies Inc., a global provider of advanced information management software, announced today that it has signed Carvill as its latest client. Carvill, one of the world’s finest independent reinsurance brokerages, selected Q.Know to be the foundation of its international NIMBLE program, a business-led technology initiative to improve client service.
Q.Know's "Information Desktop" will enable the Carvill team to have a single interface to manage all its electronic information across the company, including e-mail. For brokers, the volume, complexity, and variety of documentation involved in the deal process can become difficult to manage, particularly with the responsiveness and speed of communication required to deliver premier client service. Carvill brokers will now be able to manage every electronic file type – whether research, e-mail, modeling reports or back office data – in a singular, customizable view. With Q.Know, audit and compliance capabilities are dramatically enhanced without building additional systems, as all relevant information is now organized and managed in a central location and available 24/7 with all information up-to-date and accessible.
“After looking thoroughly at other documentation management and collaboration technologies, it was clear that Q.Know’s unique Microsoft Outlook-based platform was designed with a deep knowledge of our business and an insight into what it takes to gain competitive advantage in a highly regulated marketplace,” said John Furlong, chief information officer, Carvill. “With Q.Know, Carvill is arming its brokers, support staff and management with the tools they need to continue leading the market in delivering quality business.”
“Carvill’s reputation for excellence and the respect it garners, both in London and around the world, makes this announcement one of great importance to us at Q.Know,” states Richard E. Meyer, chairman, Q.Know Technologies, Inc. “It is with great pleasure that we join forces with Carvill to bring IT innovation directly to the users in an easy-to-use format, so they can stay focused on the business rather than the technology.”
