IMR Enhancements Sponsor: Simon Cooper (AAC) PM: Pat Talbot (IUA) IMR Security Models IMR Upgrade IMR Security Model (improved ACL functionality) has now been approved by the MRG. Plans for implementation in November 09 are being developed Project group set-up (IMR Implementation Group). Project Initiation Document drafted by Xchanging. A presentation to ECF and A&S User groups, CAUG and Security model working groups is planned for Friday 15th May to go through the plan to enable Implementation in November 2009, and 'the next steps' to achieve that - working groups to re commence week commencing 17th May Project group set-up (IMR Implementation Group). Xchanging are experiencing some problems with their regression tests that have resulted in a 2 week delay in starting MAT. we anticipate that the 'fix' that has been delivered from Interwoven will resolve the problems and allow MAT to commence later this week. We anticipate that there is still sufficient time to complete MAT in time for Implementation on July 6th. Amber Green

Market Reform Progress ECF User Group Update – April 09 InitiativeStatusActivity ProgressOutlook / Issues ECF 2 (Cost Benefit Analysis to be approved) Sponsor: Mark Chapman (Global Aerospace) PM: Gary Bass (LMA) Document File Viewer (Peter Taylor) Claims Database Project (Peter Taylor) Work flow (Peter Taylor) The MRG has approved Xchanging to work in May and June on a plan to deliver a new market-wide claims system over the next year called "ECF2". "ECF2" provides a new version of the current Lloyd's and Company market "ECF" screens and incorporates the Xchanging workflow, file viewer, and reporting components developed over the past 6-9 months. "ECF2" not only provides a common "front-end" for all carriers dealing with electronic claims, it positions the market to use "back-end" systems other than CLASS, such as a new system for binding authority claims. Together with detailed planning and estimation for the ECF2 proposal to the ECF User Group, the AAC, and MRG at the end of June, development work continues on four new components:. Claim Workflow Triggers, being a file produced regularly during the day advising all claim transaction creates, updates and responses;. Claim Workflow Services, being a workflow front-end allowing users to manage their workload of actions related to claims transactions;. Document File Viewer, being a piece of technology allowing claim handlers to see the documents making up the claims file as one user-friendly document; and. Claims Database, being a new data warehouse for claims information from the various Xchanging source systems, including ECF MI reports. Finally, Xchanging have been asked to produce a proposal to the MRG for a prototype system to handle binding authorities. If the prototype was developed successfully this year, a pilot system could be in place during 2010. ECF User Group agreement in principle to ECF2 subject to a number of caveats communicated to AAC.
