- Xuber incorporates Innovation Group's analytics solution into its software platform -

The Innovation Group plc (LSE: TIG.L), a global provider of business process services and software solutions to the insurance, fleet, automotive and property industries, has agreed a new partnership with Xuber, the insurance software specialist.

The partnership, which will run for five years, will see Innovation Group's analytics solution being incorporated into Xuber's software platform to enable the London market and the international commercial insurance community to make more information-based business decisions.

Innovation Group's Analytics software provides a powerful business intelligence platform that combines rapid headline reporting with the ability to identify individual records in order to help businesses highlight specific efficiency or claims cost leakage issues faster and more effectively. With the right data it can also help companies identify their most profitable business segments, generating significant opportunities for extra revenue.

Xuber, Xchanging's insurance software business, provides commercial insurance software to over 130 customers around the world.

Commenting on partnership agreement, Innovation Group CEO Andy Roberts said:

"This partnership will enable both our companies to explore new revenue opportunities that are mutually beneficial, while also driving new value to our customers. Whilst we both operate in the insurance market there is little overlap between our software products and services. It means we can combine our knowledge and expertise to really focus in on what the customer needs."
