Innovative.
At Beecher Carlson, we believe innovative companies don’t look for trends, they create them. We have
broken new ground with our proprietary methodologies and tools. By identifying and quantifying the
factors that impact your business, we can generate evidence-based information that helps you understand
how each decision will affect your organizations cost of risk. Technology, systems and processes cannot
stand still. They must change as industries change. We strive to continuously develop new and better
technologies to support your business requirements and drive operational excellence.
LiNK
Transparent Financial Analysis. Simple Decision Making.
The more locations your company has across the country, the more difficult it is to accurately
allocate your property premiums. Without precisely allocated premiums, it becomes nearly
impossible to create an accurate cost analysis or budget for any particular property. Beecher
Carlson has developed a way to better manage this time-consuming task.
MARA
An Analytical Approach.
At Beecher Carlson, we developed a better way to prepare your business against the likelihood
of a securities class action suit being filed, and the expected severity of financial loss relating to
securities litigation. MARA (Multivariate Algorithm for Risk Analysis) evaluates approximately
4,000 metrics to determine and assess your company’s risk drivers, identifies patterns and
allows you to focus on areas where practical risk solutions can be applied.
NOVUS
Time is money.
Businesses must make decisions quickly and accurately. That is why we created NOVUS, a
browser-based tool with a completely traceable paperless process. NOVUS preserves data
integrity, enhances communication and keeps clients, insurers and brokers in sync.
PULSE™
Be More Efficient, and More Effective.
More than ever, healthcare professionals are focused on improving the efficiency and
effectiveness of their medical malpractice insurance program without compromising the quality
of patient care. PULSE is a browser-based solution automated to all functions of your medical
malpractice insurance policy that allows doctors, facilities and allied health professionals to selfservice accounts, complete applications, receive online quotes and bind medical malpractice
coverage by simply accessing your online database.
RISKCONCIERGE
We Attend to Your Risk, So You Can Tend to Your Guests.
At Beecher Carlson, we understand your challenges and your business. We developed
RiskConcierge – an innovative web-based Hospitality Insurance and Risk Management system
that takes the hassles out of managing your insurance information. It puts your data in one
place so you can easily access and manage the effectiveness of your risk management program,
analyze claims issues and structure your program.
ZOOM®
Zoom in on Your Largest Cost of Risk.

beyond insurance placement to support your
business before, during and after times of loss in
every aspect - from statistical analysis to program
development and compliance.
CASUALTY
Prior to placing every program, we utilize a suite
of analytical tools such as loss analyses and
forecasts, outstanding collective analyses and
net present value/cash flow analyses to support
all of your program options and decisions.

claim does occur, we will be at the forefront as
your liaisons and advocates to achieve the best
and most timely outcome for your company.
CLAIMS MANAGEMENT
Risk management doesn’t stop with the
placement of an insurance program. Our
claims experts work closely with you to design,
implement and monitor your claims management
program. We’re with you through every stage of
the claims cycle, controlling the cost of loss and,
