San Diego, California, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States and Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India, Wednesday, May 25, 2011 -- (Business Wire India) -- Polaris Software Lab Limited (POLS.BO), a leading global Financial Technology Company today announced that Polaris Software Lab, Inc. (a Polaris Group Company) has launched its first Cloud-Ready platform offering for the Insurance sector globally. IntellectTM SEEC is a comprehensive solution for the Insurance sector offering 3X Efficiency Multiplier that runs on the Polaris Continuous Migration (PCM) Architecture.

Owing to its highly complex nature, the Insurance sector needed a solution which is both easy to implement and highly efficient.

This 3X Efficiency Multiplier works in tandem with PCM to deliver over 50% savings in cost and time on complex solution delivery across multiple product configurations.

PCM in turn leverages from Insurance CBX, a delivery enabler which connects to the legacy systems, providing seamless integration and straight through processing for critical business processes. Insurance CBX leverages role based workstations, business rule base and plug and play services library to support efficiency and adapt to changing business and technical requirements.

Intellect SEEC is a pure-play SOA based cloud offering comprising 10 platforms and over 70 products.

Steve Coles, Chief Information Officer, Allianz Australia, said, "We have achieved significant benefits through the implementation of claims and sales solutions using Polaris' technology including instances of productivity improvements of over 50%. The PCM suite provides a solid framework for any organization looking to derive benefits from a business and architecturally driven approach to IT."
