Overview

SSP Insurer is a cloud-native platform built on AWS. SSP takes a 'best-of-breed' approach, combining the core functionality of SSP's modern Policy Administration System with a number of pre-integrated modules, outlined in the 'Key Features' section.

SSP has taken the functional capabilities that make it the technology partner of choice for over 120 insurers around the globe, including household names such as Direct Line, QBE and Zurich, and completely re-architectured the solution to make it a true Cloud-Native platform. The result - SSP Insurer - is a functionally rich platform that meets the need of insurers of all sizes, delivered rapidly and 'as-a-service' to support agility and speed-to-market.
