Builders Wrap Administrators to Offer Single-Site Solution for Owner Controlled Insurance Programs
More Projects Can Use Cost-Cutting Method
Los Angeles, Sept. 1, 2006 Builders Wrap Administrators, a Los Angeles-area insurance products management firm, has announced the availability of an innovative approach to Owner Controlled Insurance Programs (OCIPs) that will make these cost-cutting programs available to a much wider range of developers.
With construction costs increasing exponentially in recent years, many large developers have turned to OCIP or "wrap" programs to reduce their insurance costs. These plans bundle all insurance coverages for contractors and subcontractors on a construction site into one policy, reducing administrative costs and simplifying claims management. Until now, however, complicated administrative details and prohibitive management fees have put this option out of reach of all but the largest project managers. Builders Wrap Administrators has developed a proprietary service that will allow many more developers to access the advantages of the OCIP approach.
"Builders Wrap Administrators provides developers, general contractors, lenders, and underwriters with a proven solution to the administrative challenges posed by the OCIP approach to construction insurance," says Joel Blankers, BWA Director of Business Development. "What's more, our Web-based administrative concept gives developers access to all project information on a 24/7 basis, increasing control while reducing risk."
Included in BWA's a la carte menu of OCIP services are certificate tracking for all participating contractors, site safety reporting, claims tracking, OCIP administration, project documentation and construction review. To learn more about OCIP and potential cost savings, contact BWA at (310) 760-0515.
