Guidewire consulting for P&C carriers. Senior-led, not staffed.
We help P&C carriers and MGAs implement Guidewire, migrate to Guidewire Cloud, and ship the integrations that actually need to work. A small team of senior consultants, Principal-led start to finish — not a pyramid of juniors.
Services
What we do
Guidewire work from assessment to go-live and after. Pick a phase, or take the whole thing.
01
Assessment & Roadmap
Strategy
We look at what you have, where you're stuck, and where Guidewire fits. You get a concrete plan — milestones, risks, and a number — not a slide deck of platitudes.
- Current-state assessment
- Gap analysis
- Target-state design
- Delivery roadmap with milestones
- Executive stakeholder alignment
02
Delivery & Program Management
Implementation
PolicyCenter, BillingCenter, and ClaimCenter configuration. PCF and Gosu rules, integrations, data migration, UAT. We write code when it needs writing and run the program when it needs running.
- PolicyCenter / BillingCenter configuration
- Gosu rules and PCF development
- System integrations
- Data migration
- Program management and UAT
03
Cloud & Platform Modernization
Modernization
Moving to Guidewire Cloud, decommissioning mainframe, or evaluating what's worth adopting — without betting the quarter on a proof-of-concept.
- Self-managed → Guidewire Cloud migration
- Mainframe decommissioning
- Cloud target-state design
- Proof-of-concept development
- Cost-benefit analysis
Process
How it works
Four steps. The same every time.
01
Discovery
A week or two with your team and your systems. Output: a one-pager on what's actually going on.
02
Plan
A roadmap with dates, owners, a budget range, and the risks worth naming up front.
03
Build
Configuration, code, integrations, migration, UAT. Your team works alongside us — not underneath us.
04
After go-live
Stabilization, adoption, and the second wave of things you'll wish you'd done on day one.
Why SimplyTek
Why work with us
The short version: senior, specialized, and the people you talk to are the people doing the work.
9 years inside Guidewire
Our Principal spent 9 years at Guidewire Software as an Implementation Consultant. We know the platform the way insiders do.
Senior-led, no juniors
No account exec, no offshore bench, no pyramid of juniors. The work is done by experienced consultants, Principal-led from the first call to post-go-live.
P&C, not generic consulting
Personal lines, commercial, specialty. We've worked with claims handlers, underwriters, and actuaries across a range of P&C lines. We speak the language.
Roadmap to running
Strategy, build, cloud migration, post-go-live. Whichever part you need, that part is what you get — no padding.
