The Evolving Landscape: Why Change Is Necessary Australian insurance builders are grappling with a surge in claims due to extreme weather—bushfires, floods, and storms are now more frequent and severe. According to the Insurance Council of Australia, insured losses from natural disasters have exceeded $10 billion (about $31 per person in the US) in recent years, putting immense pressure on claims teams to deliver rapid, accurate, and transparent outcomes. Meanwhile, traditional claims processes—manual paperwork, fragmented communication, and legacy systems—are no longer fit for purpose. Builders and insurers alike face: Delays in claim approvals and settlements Increased risk of errors and fraud Frustrated customers and strained reputations Difficulty scaling operations during catastrophe events This is where the next generation claim management software steps in, offering a lifeline for efficiency, compliance, and customer satisfaction.
