IVANS
The industry network, now part of Applied Systems, that moves policy download and real-time data between carriers and agencies.
IVANS is the connectivity network that carriers and agencies use to exchange data. It is the pipe that carries policy download, eDocs, commission download and real-time transactions between hundreds of carriers and the agency management systems that agents use.
Now owned by Applied Systems, IVANS operates products such as IVANS Exchange and IVANS Markets, and its download standards are effectively universal across the U.S. independent agency channel.
- IVANS Connections helps agencies see which carriers they can turn on download with.
- IVANS Markets helps agents find carrier appetite and market appointments.
When an agency "sets up download," it is typically activating a carrier connection through IVANS and mapping it in the AMS.
