SEEC's SOA Solutions for Insurance
The Company's flagship library of standards-based, reusable software components (the SEEC Advantage Library) provides a deep selection of ready-built functionality that can be rapidly assembled and customized to deliver SOA solutions with a rich Web 2.0 user experience. Key insurance solutions delivered using SEEC components include:

• Agent and customer service portals

SEEC components form a shared-Services layer above legacy applications based on industry-standard semantics, providing a uniform way to access information and perform transactions across otherwise disconnected IT silo's. Unlike traditional applications, SEEC components leverage the legacy data and back-end functionality already in place, enabling customers to re-use proven systems without a high-risk replacement decision, and liberate the business from struggling with silo'ed applications. SEEC components are built to industry-standards (J2EE, ACORD, Web Services), and licensed with the source code, avoiding the risk of proprietary lock-in, forced upgrades and obsolescence.
