Gore Mutual Insurance embeds Guidewire ProNavigator to speed underwriting and claims decisions. Nov 02, 2026, 08:55 ET Canadian insurer gives underwriting and claims teams direct access to Guidewire ProNavigator inside their daily workflows, improving response times and decision accuracy CAMBRIDGE, ON and SAN MATEO, Calif., Nov. 2, 2026 /CNW/ - Gore Mutual Insurance ("Gore Mutual") and Guidewire (NYSE: GWRE) today announced the deployment of Guidewire ProNavigator across Gore Mutual's Claims and Personal Lines underwriting operations. ProNavigator is embedded directly into the company's core policy and claims applications, giving employees immediate access to relevant underwriting rules, policy guidelines, and internal documentation, without leaving their primary work screen. Bringing ProNavigator into Daily Insurance Operations Underwriters and claims adjusters spend much of their day interpreting rules, policy guidelines, and internal documentation spread across systems and shared drives. With ProNavigator now built into the applications they already use, that knowledge comes to them instead as a direct answer, at the moment a question comes up, without switching screens or hunting for the right document. The result is better decisions and faster, more consistent service for policyholders and broker partners alike. "At the heart of great claims service is making sure our people have the right information at the right time," said Suzanne Courtlander, Chief Claims Officer, Gore Mutual. "ProNavigator gives our teams faster access to knowledge, greater confidence in decision-making, and more time to focus on what matters most: supporting our customers when they need us most." Delivering Measurable Business Value By embedding ProNavigator into daily workflows, Gore Mutual is driving several advancements across its organization: * Improved Decision-Making: Frontline teams work from a single source of truth to promote uniform policy and claims decisions across all lines of business. * Expanded Operational Capacity: Faster answers to procedural questions let employees resolve more cases per day, helping teams keep pace with rising transaction volumes without sacrificing service quality. * Enhanced Risk Mitigation: Consistent access to underwriting guidelines and claims procedures strengthens adherence to established practices, helping mitigate operational and financial risk. "Technology investments like ProNavigator are helping us build a simpler, more connected organization that makes it easier for broker partners to do business with us and easier for policyholders to get the support they need," added Shane Mannion, Chief Information Officer, Gore Mutual. "Digitization creates the greatest business value when it's part of the work employees already do every day," said Joseph D'Souza, General Manager of ProNavigator, Guidewire. "Gore Mutual is putting that principle into practice, using ProNavigator in its daily workflows to help its teams make faster, better-informed decisions for policyholders and brokers."
