What is eDocs/Agency Download Service?

We are partnering with IVANS to provide Agency Download Service to our agencies. The Agency Download Service is an automated process that allows SECURA policy information to download directly into an agency’s management system (AMS). 

• The system translates the data into a shareable format across multiple agency systems.
• The policy data is synchronized between SECURA and the agency via updating the data on the agency’s system.
• Download streamlines the process using ACORD standards to drive agency efficiency and reduce E&O exposure. This will save time by eliminating re-keying of data as well as providing a faster workflow for your employees.

eDocs: We now send policy documents as attachments through the download direct to the agent management system. This offers a secure and managed alternative to email, mail, and faxes. It is an auditable, secure, system-based method of handling essential communications between carriers and their agents.

How does it work?

Each night, SECURA transmits new or changed policy information to IVANS. This data is sorted and placed in your agency’s IVANS mailbox. The policy data is available for download into your management system the following day.

Are there any costs involved?

There is no additional cost to our agents.

Will it work with my Agency Management System?

SECURA is currently certified with the following AMS systems for eDocs: Applied, Hawksoft, NASA, Vertafore, XDTI- Nexsure, Webcetera- EZLynx, SIS- Partner XE, and Agency Systems- Newton.
