One of NIC's primary objectives is to digitize and automate policy services for Carriers, Distributors and Agents, making it easier to do business while saving all stakeholders time, money and frustration.
NIC provides Distributors and Agents with a single location to access all of their in force policy data, positioning NIC as a logical gateway to integrate with multiple Carrier tools and services. There are multiple types of Carrier policy services that can be initiated from or integrated into the NIC Platform.
