Configuring the Pitney Bowes integration in Pega Underwriting for Insurance

Updated on September 13, 2021

Pega Underwriting for Insurance supports integration with Pitney Bowes’ GeoProperty and GeoRisk web services. With this integration, you can configure Pega Underwriting for Commercial Insurance to receive property information and risk data for Commercial Property and General Liability submissions.

  • The GeoProperty web service provides information about a commercial property, including address, number of buildings, stories, and apartments, condition, construction type, exterior finish, assessed value, year built, and square footage.
  • The GeoRisk web service provides information about risk factors for a commercial location, including data about crime, earthquakes, floods, fires, proximity to fire stations, and distance to the coast.
