The Dominion Licenses OneShield Dragon(R) for Modern Policy Management

WESTBOROUGH, MA--(Marketwire - August 18, 2009) - OneShield, Inc., the developer of OneShield Dragon®, an innovatively modern, rules- and tools-based, data-driven policy management solution, is pleased to announce The Dominion of Canada General Insurance Company (The Dominion), one of Canada's oldest insurance companies, has licensed OneShield Dragon to handle the company's growing policy management needs.

"We are very pleased to work with a company as respected and firmly committed to the Canadian insurance market as The Dominion," said Glenn Anschutz, President and CEO of OneShield, Inc. "OneShield's technology, industry expertise and implementation methods obviously address the specific needs of Canadian insurers."

The Dominion's continuous drive to be highly responsive to the changing needs of the insured and the marketplace, in terms of new product introductions and overall business operations, led the company to select OneShield Dragon for its breadth of policy management functionality. Today, The Dominion provides a wide range of personal and commercial insurance coverages and services at competitive rates for Canadian customers. The company's rollout of OneShield Dragon is a multi-year initiative covering all product lines.

"As a requirement during our Proof of Concept, The Dominion required business users to independently configure products using Dragon," said Heather Peacock, Senior Vice President, Sales and Client Services for OneShield. "This speaks volumes to the self-sufficiency OneShield clients are able to immediately achieve. Dragon puts the business in control."

OneShield Dragon is a tools-based, data-driven insurance underwriting, policy administration, rating and workflow engine. Based on proven insurance practices and a well-defined data model, OneShield Dragon provides configurable and modifiable options to meet today's goals and to adapt to future demands.

"A critical consideration for The Dominion was finding a complete, modern policy management solution that would enable us to respond to market conditions and customer expectations quickly," said Janet Babcock, Chief Information Officer for The Dominion. "The powerful, flexible capabilities of OneShield Dragon are consistently lauded in the industry and this, coupled with their team's sincere commitment to The Dominion's success, truly differentiated OneShield from other vendors. We have been very impressed with the caliber of the OneShield people, their knowledge of insurance, Dragon and the Dragon tool set, and their collaborative style."
