Blue Frog Solutions, Insurance Technologies Form Strategic Partnership

Blue Frog Solutions (Pompano Beach, Fla.), provider of life and annuity order management and compliance solutions and Insurance Technologies (Colorado Springs, Co.), provider of point-of-sale illustration software to the insurance and financial services industries, have formed a strategic partnership.

The partnership will be a multi-phased initiative. In the initial phase, Insurance Technologies will launch a Web services infrastructure as part of its VisibleChoice multi-carrier annuity sales platform and will leverage Blue Frog's Blue Source platform for uploading, versioning and maintaining standards-based annuity product profile information.

The next phase of the new Blue Frog"Insurance Technologies partnership will encompass the pre-integration of new business information into Blue Frog's AFFIRM from VisibleChoice. The two solution providers are also leveraging standard XML ACORD and Web services for business reasons such as speed to market and cost effectiveness for broker-dealers.
