This project was developed for Church Mutual
which is one of the largest insurance companies in
the US. The Multiperil project was mostly used by
churches in the US for insuring artifacts belonging
to the church. The core policy admin engine is
built over the Silver Moon IAA APIs. This project
is actually a model based project and there is a
separate application to configure the model. The
entire flow for the application is configured in the

generating premium values based on selected
coverage. All US government controlled ratings
were part of a separate database which was
retrieved using a framework, developed by us. A
separate application, also developed by us was
used to manage and maintain different versions of
ratings as when changed by US government.

of rules and ratings. For each state there is a
separate model to solve the different laws
mandated by each state. The entire flow for the
application is configured in the model which is
then used at run time for generating premium
values based on selected coverages. All US
government controlled ratings were part of a
separate database which was retrieved using a
