Gateway Insurance Company Goes Into Production with Duck Creek Policy Administration™

BOLIVAR, Missouri, July 12, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --

Company processing Commercial Automobile, Workers Compensation, General Liability and Inland Marine.

Duck Creek Technologies, Inc., a provider of innovative software and services for the insurance industry, announced today that Gateway Insurance Company is in production and processing General Liability, Commercial Property, Commercial Automobile, and Workers Compensation policies on the Duck Creek Policy Administration™ system. Gateway is headquartered in St. Louis, MO and has been providing insurance coverage since 1946. They are an admitted carrier in 44 states plus the District of Columbia.

Gateway chose Duck Creek because of the flexibility of its technology, which will enable them to rapidly develop and adapt insurance products to a constantly changing marketplace. They licensed Duck Creek's ISO-based templates for Commercial Auto, Inland Marine, and General Liability, in addition to licensing the NCCI-based templates for Workers Compensation.

Gateway has over 60 years experience specializing in niche markets such as Taxicabs, Black Car, and Sedan Service. Their acquisition by the Wisconsin-based Hendricks Group added over 40 years of experience in the roofing and building materials distribution industry, enabling Gateway to expand into insurance products for Roofing and Artisan Contractors. In turn, Gateway has found success in utilizing their commercial auto expertise in a Truck Insurance Program for interstate for-hire motor carriers. 

"The primary considerations when choosing our IT vendor were technology platform and company culture," stated Dan Boxell, President and CEO, Gateway Insurance Company. "We wanted a long-term partner and are pleased with the success of the implementation."

"Our proven implementation methodology is one of our key strengths," commented Steve Hall, Duck Creek's President and CEO. "Gateway is a dynamic, growing organization. The flexible tools and scalable technology in the Duck Creek products will support Gateway's expansion initiatives going forward."
