Industry Solutions Committee

As the only authorized user group for agencies and brokerages using Applied Systems, Inc. software solutions, ASCnet and its Industry Solutions Committee work closely with Applied Systems and other industry groups to ensure that agents and brokers perform seamless operations. Improving the interface between Applied Systems software and other vendor software or company portals means agents and brokers save time in data entry, response,  and training, and at the same time reducing error and omissions exposure.

ASCnet’s Industry Solutions Committee partners with Independent Agents and Brokers, Applied Systems and Carriers for efficient workflows. Click here to view our Partnering for Efficient Workflows positioning statement.

PAC

ASCnet’s Product Advisory Committee (PAC) works closely with the Product Management Division of ASI to determine which enhancements to present at the Product Roadmap meetings and helping evaluate trends in the industry. ASI agrees it is important that the users effect change and has stated they want ASCnet and need ASCnet to assist them in their future product development. 

Recently, the PAC successfully completed a reorganization to reflect the changes made by ASI within their Product Development Department. The PDC merged two separate, product-oriented groups into one larger group sub-divided by product function with TAM and Vision agency users working together. This has allowed more volunteers to be involved in the PDC and enabled each committee member to focus their knowledge on the specific product segment they use most. Read about changes to Enhancement Requests and the Prodcut Advisory Committee
