New programme from Allied Insurance

Allied Insurance Brokers in the USA has partnered with ProSight Specialty Insurance to launch a new insurance programme for the crane industry.

The new all-lines insurance programme has been tailored for the crane industry and offers risk management tools, loss control solutions and specialty claims management services, a spokesperson said. The programme is customised and coverage is available nationwide within the continental United States.

“The all-lines insurance and risk management solution addresses the complexities of this industry’s risks and meets the actual industry needs and concerns of today’s crane industry professionals,” the company said. “With our one-stop all-lines approach, Allied and ProSight's Crane Program eliminates any claims confusion due to multiple insurance carriers and provides a better customer experience overall.”

The product offerings include general liability, workers’ compensation, riggers coverage, property, excess and crime.

Marty O'Brien, Allied chairman and CEO, said, “With over 20 years of experience, the crane industry is one that is very near and dear to us here at Allied. Our passion and knowledge for the crane industry, along with ProSight’s specialty resources, allowed us to assemble a programme that covers all facets of crane risks. With this programme, we are looking to help strengthen crane companies by making them safer and more profitable organisations. This is what Allied is all about… being solutions driven and contributing in very impactful ways that benefit the entire industry.”

Jake Morin, programme executive for several of ProSight's construction programmes, added, “We are very excited about partnering with Allied and customising an insurance offering which is tailored to the crane industry. With construction at its highest point in years, it is the right opportunity for ProSight and Allied to bring a customised all-lines approach to the table.”
