New Automation Resource

Streamline Processes, Reduce Redundancies and Increase Productivity with NASBP and SFAA’s New Resource

NASBP’s Automation & Technology Committee has been working with several other organizations to create additional automation resources for its membership. Along with the Surety & Fidelity Association of America’s e-Business Advisory Committee, the group has posted several resources on this site to assist agents and carriers with information to streamline processes, reduce redundancies and increase productivity in the surety bond process. 


The new site, located at http://www.suretyautomation.org, features:
  • The latest news affecting our industry from ACORD News Center, InsuranceTech.com, Insurance Networking, and Property Casualty 360 – Technology,
  • Searchable and sortable eBidding / eBonding Database including vendor compatibility,
  • Updated “Best Practices: Electronic Bonding Technologies” document,
  • Updated “eProcurement Bidding/Bonding Guidelines” document, and
  • Information on technology resources including cloud computing, email encryption, mobile devices, social media, security, and other tools.
Nick Newton, President of Newton Bonding, and Chair of the NASBP Automation & Technology Committee, believes this resource can provide many benefits to agencies and carriers in all phases of automation:
“The emphasis should be on maintaining this site as technology is rapidly changing. What we post today may be obsolete tomorrow so it is important that we actively get feedback from agents regarding what they are using and challenges they face. Technology may not always be the answer, but it empowers us to improve efficiency.”
