John Elcock, vice president and CIO of Unitrin Direct, said: “Using DRC’s technical resources in addition to our internal staff, we were able to migrate an acquired book of business off a mainframe within 1 year of acquiring the system. Partnering with them on the migration enabled us to start this project sooner than originally anticipated.”
Karen Yamamoto, executive VP of DRC, said: “We are pleased when clients turn to DRC for technical services, in addition to our policy administration products. Special projects like this bring together a unified team of experts to accomplish a business objective. We look forward to continuing our support of Unitrin Direct’s IT initiatives.”
