Insight Risk's MGA Enhances Distribution Through IPS Partnership to Drive Innovation

Insight Risk's MGA Partners with Innovative Program Solutions

In a significant strategic move, Insight Risk Technologies has joined forces with Innovative Program Solutions (IPS), a subsidiary of Holmes Murphy, aiming to enhance the distribution and reach of its specialized Builder's Risk insurance. This partnership is set to leverage advanced technology to provide innovative solutions while retaining the core values and structure that define Insight Risk.

Founded in 2021, Insight Risk blends a consultation-driven approach with tech innovations specifically within the Builder's Risk domain. Notably, the MGA harnesses Internet of Things (IoT) technologies to proactively prevent water damage—an issue that represents the largest source of losses in construction insurance. The results have been impressive, with clients witnessing up to a 90% reduction in water damage incidents.

Chad Hollingsworth, Co-Founder and President of Insight Risk Technologies, emphasized that the collaboration with IPS will enable the MGA to maintain its unique brand identity while vastly expanding its outreach and capabilities. “It's about extending our distribution network without diluting what makes us special,” Hollingsworth remarked. Through this partnership, Insight Risk can tap into IPS’s extensive resources and expertise, allowing them to manage more projects effectively.

This collaboration is a continuation of Holmes Murphy's commitment to innovate within the insurance industry. Dan Keough, Chairman and CEO of Holmes Murphy, highlighted the foresight that led to this partnership, explaining how Insight Risk’s model aligns with the goals of IPS. “Welcome to the IPS platform allows us to put meaningful scale behind that vision,” he said. The aim is clear: collaborate with clients to recognize and manage risks before they result in significant losses.

As construction insurance evolves, Insight Risk's partnership with IPS exemplifies how technology can revolutionize risk management and underwriting practices. The incorporation of IoT solutions into construction sites not only circumvents potential problems but also integrates data analytics to inform smarter decision-making processes for clients.

Furthermore, Insight Risk's status as a Lloyd’s Coverholder enhances its appeal to a broader array of partners and clients. This relationship allows them to maintain independence and accountability, ensuring they remain focused on their mission while benefiting from the scale and capability provided by IPS.

The partnership comes at a time of rapid change in the construction and insurance industries. As market demands shift towards more tech-centric solutions, Insight Risk stands poised to lead the charge, leveraging their cutting-edge tools to help prevent damages and improve the overall safety of construction sites. Their innovative approach to underwriting, which includes offsetting costs for IoT solutions with premium credits, demonstrates a progressive model that aligns technology with risk reduction.

For anyone in the construction sector or interested in innovative insurance solutions, this development is undoubtedly a noteworthy trend. Insight Risk Technologies continues to evolve, introducing an era where the marriage of technology and insurance not only provides security but also establishes a new standard of excellence in risk management.

As this partnership unfolds, industry watchers will keenly observe how Insight Risk scales its operations and implements its IoT solutions across various projects and partners.
