Prevention that can't be proven can't be credited.

Your industrial clients run disciplined loss prevention, and their systems already record who did each act, in what role and when. The data is there. A carrier cannot verify those records without seeing the client's source systems, so a disciplined client and a well-documented one look the same in the file, and neither gets full credit.

A record the carrier can verify offline, without access to the client's systems, lets it credit the prevention.

Why it matters to your brokerage now

Property rates are softening for every broker, so rate no longer sets you apart. Accounts are won and kept on terms, capacity and the claims record. Bring your clients records their carriers can verify, through the renewal, risk control and claims work you already do, and your best-run accounts stand apart from their class, with you as the broker who got them there.
