Connective Technologies, Inc. announces
TEAM-UP Download contract with Mid-State Mutual Company.
Houston, TX, (BusinessWire) March 28, 2006, Connective
Technologies announces their signing of an agreement with Mid-State
Mutual for providing carrier-direct downloads to their agents
using one of the TEAMUP products.
Steve Miller, President and CEO of Mid-State Mutual comments,
"Quality and cost effective service to our agency-base is
vital to our success. With Connective's carrier-direct download
product and its simple, realtime process flow and functionality,
TEAM-UP Download will make it easier to do business with Mid-State
Mutual. This allows us to achieve our goal of getting even closer
to our agents at an affordable cost."
"Connective looks forward to expanding its presence on the
West Coast, especially with our new partner, Mid-State Mutual.
We welcome our western neighbor and are excited that they are
able to leverage our technologically advanced, Service-Oriented
Architecture ("SOA") to gain a competitive advantage
with their agents," adds Dic Marxen, Chairman of Connective.
TEAM-UP Download is an Internet-secure offering being leveraged
by P&C carriers in providing accessibility to over 10,000
trading partners throughout the United States. Now in its third
major release, the product has matured to ensure agencies a seamless
migration from other download processes. The improved self-reliant
features such as single-policy, real-time archival retrievals
by the agents, and improved group management distribution and
tracking that accelerate the registration and implementation process
for both agencies and carriers, have been implemented with TEAM-UP's SOA to seamlessly
fit into a carrier's existing agency portals. It also incorporates
a single-process entry point at the agency for accessing multiple
carriers downloads.
