What Is It?

The New Business Administrator is an ADMServer application developed by Blue Frog Solutions to address business-to-business messaging for new business applications for life and annuity insurance. In addition to the ACORD New Business for Annuity (NBfA) and New Business for Life (NBfL) messages, the solution supports a number of proprietary electronic applications including NSCC APP/SUB format, Raymond James PCA format, and others. The ADMServer New Business Administrator Module provides Carriers out-of-the-box support for all popular formats and can easily support any custom or proprietary format. All inbound formats are converted to the Carrier's preferred single format for in-house processing eliminating the need for the back office to interact with multiple formats.

The diagram below provides an overview of the ADMServer New Business Administrator Module:

As illustrated above, the ADMServer New Business Administrator is installed on-site at the Carrier, and acts as a universal translator for new business messages. This means that if you already support the NSCC APP message, but need support for Smith Barney and ACORD, we simply install the system as a translator. ADMServer receives the Smith Barney electronic application format and outputs an NSCC APP message to your back office, allowing you to support new messages without any additional work.

The ADMServer New Business administrator frees your internal technical staff to focus on development of business rules, and other necessary programming tasks instead of constant maintenance. With ADMServer, Blue Frog maintains all standard and proprietary formats as they change.

New Business Administrator Benefits

• Single back office integration for multiple New Business formats (no integration necessary if you already process one of the formats).
• Isolates your back office from testing and retesting constantly changing formats.
• Supports New Business & Subsequent transactions.
• Fully Maintained - as the standards are updated, Blue Frog automatically updates the system for you.
• Multiple batch and interactive approaches to integrate with your back office systems.
• Because ADMServer uses ACORD as it's core data dictionary, you can easily expand the solution to transfer, store, or create additional ACORD transactions.
• Maintain multiple standards and multiple versions, all at one time.
• Provides a user-friendly user interface and reports for business users. This allows non-technical staff to administer day-to-day messaging operations, view transaction summaries, or even drill into specific application details. ADMServer can even e-mail auto generated reports on a daily or monthly basis to specified individuals.
• Handles exceptions, audit logging, error reporting, and business rules for processing inbound apps to the correct systems.
• Frees your staff to work on critical internal systems and business rules as opposed to dealing with data translation and maintenance.
• Bring on new distributors and new formats in days and weeks instead of months or years.
• Most of our clients realize a 70% reduction in maintenance and/or development costs.
