Firma digitale per l'assicurazione

In order to avoid the time-consuming paper-based process of reviewing, approving, and archiving paper-based insurance documentation, insurance companies have begun automating workflow procedures. As a result, electronic documents are increasingly used in multiple phases of the business process, from policy submission to inner-office documentation. But all too often, when a signature is needed on a document, a hard copy original is printed and physically routed for signatures. Reintroducing paper into the workflow is expensive, time-consuming, inefficient, and affects business agility.

Digital signature solutions produce legally enforceable electronic records, closing the gap in going fully paperless by completely eliminating the need to print documents for signing. Digital signatures enable the replacement of slow and expensive paper-based approval processes with fast, low-cost, and fully digital ones.

By enabling a fully automated workflow, digital signatures reduce the expenses and time allocations that paper-based signatures require. A paper-based signature is estimated to cost an organization upwards of $6.50 each (including printing, scanning, archiving, routing and replacing lost documents). An average authorized signer signs two documents a workday. With 20 workdays a month, the monthly paper signing costs can surpass $260 per signer.

CoSign® digital signatures allow insurance organizations to leverage the investments they've made in automating the workflow, driving down costs and expediting business processes. CoSign's ability to expedite collaboration enables mobile sales personnel and staff in multiple offices to quickly authorize documentation, enabling sales processes that once took days to be completed in minutes.

CoSign works seamlessly with all common document formats such as Microsoft® Word, Excel®, Outlook®, InfoPath®, Adobe® PDF, AutoCAD®, Bentley® MicroStation, TIFF, and other document types. CoSign is standards-based (based on Public Key Infrastructure – PKI), avoiding vendor lock-in and allowing the document to be verified by anyone, anywhere, anytime without the need for proprietary verification software or third party support.

CoSign is offered in two versions – CoSign Desktop is meant for individual users, while CoSign Central is designed for a multiple-user organization. CoSign Central is based on easy-to-use software that communicates with a centralized and secure digital signature server. It is quick-to-deploy and ideal for mid to large sized organizations, offering seamless integration with content management and workflow systems. For smaller organizations (up to 10 signers), CoSign Desktop is offered as a standalone solution that does not require any hardware component.
