Overview: Aflac Japan is the leading life insurance company in the Japanese market, insuring one in four Japanese households, and is represented by 8,000 agents, making it the country's largest foreign insurer in terms of premium income. Using Nexaweb's Enterprise Web Suite, Aflac Japan has deployed a comprehensive Web-based Insurance Premium Calculation System (IPCS) that combines legacy inquiry, Internet-mediated and stand-alone applications. The IPCS runs in any client environment, including desktops in the office, mobile and occasionally disconnected devices with Internet connectivity. The new Nexaweb-based application delivers a rich user interface that functions like a client/server application with asynchronous data delivery and fast keyboard navigation. The result is an efficient, easy-to-use application that increases agent productivity and reduces the risks associated with insurance premium calculations. Maintenance for the newly integrated application is also more efficient, which means significant cost and time reductions as compared to maintaining the previously disparate applications.
