Template library
Centralized templates for estimates, work authorizations, and release forms with version control and role-based edit permissions, ensuring uniform documents across adjusters and contractors.
Using specialized proposal software lowers administrative time, standardizes estimates, and improves compliance with insurance documentation standards, helping teams process more claims and proposals with fewer errors.
Claims adjusters use the software to import loss data, generate scope-of-loss proposals based on standardized pricing, attach photos and estimates, and route documents for approvals. They rely on audit trails to document decisions and maintain evidence for settlements and subrogation.
Field technicians create itemized repair proposals onsite using mobile templates, capture photos and measurements, and obtain digital signatures from policyholders or property managers to authorize work and confirm acceptance of scope and pricing.
Claims adjusters, underwriters, field service teams, and third-party contractors use proposal software to create, review, and finalize HVAC repair and replacement proposals.
Adopting a centralized system reduces handoffs and ensures each role has controlled access to the documents needed to complete their tasks.
Centralized templates for estimates, work authorizations, and release forms with version control and role-based edit permissions, ensuring uniform documents across adjusters and contractors.
Configurable line-item catalogs and labor rates that integrate with existing commercial pricing guides, enabling consistent, auditable cost calculations within proposals.
Responsive mobile interfaces for field technicians to capture signatures, photos, and measurements onsite, minimizing rework and administrative lag between inspection and authorization.
Comprehensive, timestamped logs capturing each action on a document—views, edits, and signatures—to support regulatory audits and internal dispute resolution.
APIs and prebuilt connectors for common CRMs, claims platforms, and document storage systems to automate data population and synchronize signed documents.
Granular role-based permissions and authentication settings to limit edit and viewing rights, protecting sensitive policyholder and claim information.
Two-way sync with carrier CRMs and policy administration systems so proposals automatically pull claimant and policy data, reducing duplicate entry and alignment errors between documents and claim records.
Direct saving to enterprise storage and records systems such as document management repositories, ensuring signed proposals are archived in the carrier’s retention system with appropriate metadata.
Visual template editor with conditional fields and required-disclosure blocks so teams can build compliant HVAC proposals that adapt to coverage or state requirements without developer assistance.
REST APIs for creating, sending, and retrieving signed proposals programmatically to integrate with automated claim workflows and downstream payment systems.
| Setting Name | Configuration |
|---|---|
| Signature reminder email frequency setting | Send first reminder after 48 hours and send up to two follow-ups at 72 hour intervals if unsigned. |
| Document expiration and retention policy | Expire unsigned proposals after 30 days and retain signed documents for seven years according to carrier retention rules. |
| Approval routing and escalation sequence | Route to adjuster then underwriter; escalate to manager after five business days if not actioned. |
| Template versioning and lock policy | Lock previous template versions on publication and allow edits only by template administrators. |
| Attachment and file size limits | Accept photos and files up to 25 MB total per proposal to balance evidence needs and storage costs. |
Ensure mobile, tablet, and desktop environments meet minimum browser and OS requirements for secure signing and attachment capture.
For field use, prioritize devices with current OS security updates, sufficient storage for photos, and the ability to run the provider’s app or modern browser; test offline capture and sync behavior before wide deployment.
An adjuster uploads inspection photos and selects standard HVAC repair items to populate a proposal using preapproved pricing
Leading to faster approval and cleaner payment reconciliation for the carrier.
A field technician creates a replacement proposal from a mobile device using preset templates
Resulting in immediate work authorization and reduced cycle time to completion.
