02/17/2004

MicroStrategy (NASDAQ: MSTR), the provider of business intelligence software, says Grange Insurance has expanded its deployment of MicroStrategy with MicroStrategy Report Services to provide enterprise reporting and analysis of sales and loss ratios. With over a billion dollars in written premiums, Grange Insurance is a property and casualty insurer that offers home, auto and business insurance and a full line of life insurance and financial products through wholly owned subsidiaries Grange Life and The Grange Bank.



“More than 300 Grange Insurance associates including territory managers, portfolio managers, and customer management personnel, already use MicroStrategy to analyze four terabytes of data to identify areas of improvement in product design, customer management, and to recognize cross- and up-sell opportunities,” MicroStrategy says. “These users are able to use this insight to assist them in seeking to increase the profitability of each product, region or agent.”

“Building on our existing platform, we selected MicroStrategy Report Services because we needed an integrated reporting and analysis solution that would provide a single dashboard for each individual agent with advanced reporting capabilities,” said Tony Simpkins, Project Lead at Grange Insurance. “MicroStrategy Report Services creates content-rich, user-friendly reports that empower our associates to make more strategic and proactive decisions allowing us to better assess performance and enhance operational efficiencies.”

“MicroStrategy Report Services combines the best in business analytics and reporting to bring customers an integrated technology that is designed to fulfill their analytical data and reporting requirements enterprise-wide,” said MicroStrategy’s COO Sanju Bansal. “We’re proud to continue our relationship with Grange Insurance. We have found companies are increasingly recognizing that MicroStrategy’s industrial-strength platform provides outstanding enterprise-class reporting and business-intelligence applications.”
