Ivans® announced an expansion to its partnership with Duck Creek Technologies to quickly integrate and onboard its carrier customers to the Ivans Distribution Platform, the industry's platform to streamline the submission process through standardized digital connections to agency-facing systems. The partnership will enable mutual customers of Duck Creek and Ivans Distribution Platform to easily implement the platform and quickly provide digital commercial quoting experiences to their agencies. Ivans Distribution Platform improves the entire commercial lines policy lifecycle. Unlike point solutions available in the market, the platform supports both straight through processing as well as more complex risks that require an underwriter's attention.

By identifying market appetite via Ask Kodiak as part of the process, the Ivans solution increases efficiencies and submission volume and can lower declination rates.
