General Services DepartmentRisk Management Information System EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • RMIS - The one essential tool for effectively assessing and managing the location, extent and cost of loss • Business Problem and Opportunity • No successful insurance entity can function without the support of a RMIS • A RMIS is the key to preserving the financial viability of the entity and limiting the cost of protection (in the form of premiums) to the entity’s customers. It provides the: • Analyses of cost and cause of loss, • Ability to detect and analyze emerging loss trends, • Ability to proactively anticipate and prevent, or limit the damage of, emerging loss trends • RMD is the custodian of self insured retention funds which addresses workers’ compensation, liability, and property premium collections and payments for incurred loss
General Services DepartmentRisk Management Information System RMD Bears the Burden of Two Primary Responsibilities: 1. To preserve life and public property through the prevention of the occurrence of insurable loss 2. To mitigate the cost of incurred loss through process management of the claims adjusting and payment system Neither of these responsibilities can be achieved without the availability of a full service, state-of-the-art RMIS

General Services DepartmentRisk Management Information System The Need Defined • RMD annually generates 4400 total NEW claims • FY08 total was 4453 claims (2534 Workers Comp, 1919 Liability & Property) • Historical claims totals are 112,379 (56,648 Workers Comp, 55,731 Liability & Property) • Workers Comp last year processed 36,943 automated claim payments totaling $14,357,698.00 • The annual cost of not meeting statutory requirements for timeliness of payments would total in excess of two million of dollars • Enhancing RMIS capabilities is the primary tool for delivering superior customer service. Client agencies demand and deserve better service and support from RMD • The Executive and Legislative Branches are requiring more detailed data, and more in depth analysis of loss trends • RMD is vulnerable to loss or corruption of data due to weaknesses present in the current legacy system and end-of life hardware
