Marine Insurers · P&I Clubs · Underwriters

Better records. Faster claims. Lower-risk insureds.

Marine underwriters and P&I clubs depend on the documentation quality of their insureds. When operators run on spreadsheets, claims arrive incomplete, valuations are disputed, and settlements drag for months. Operators using GIMS arrive with audit-ready records — and that changes the underwriting math.

The proposition

Three things insurers consistently want — and three things GIMS produces by default.

Marine claims aren't usually denied because they're invalid. They're denied or delayed because the documentation underneath them is incomplete, inconsistent, or disputed. GIMS removes that friction at its source.

01 / VALUATION

Defensible pre-loss valuations

Every asset in GIMS carries a current replacement value, depreciation schedule, photographic record, and condition state. When a claim is filed, the insurer doesn't argue valuation — they verify it.

02 / CUSTODY

Auditable chain-of-custody

Every transfer, every approval, every receipt is logged immutably. Subrogation, general average, and shared-liability investigations have a clean evidence trail to follow — not a spreadsheet to reconstruct.

03 / SPEED

Submission-ready claim packets

One-click reports scoped to a vessel, a voyage, or a specific incident — formatted for surveyors, adjusters, and brokers. Operators skip the document scramble; insurers skip the document chase.

Partnership model

How insurance partners work with BlueBay.

Insurers, P&I clubs, and reinsurance facilities can engage with BlueBay in several ways — from informal referrals to formal preferred-vendor arrangements that benefit both their insureds and their loss ratios.

01

Referral

Underwriters recommend GIMS to insureds whose documentation quality is creating claims friction.

02

Preferred Vendor

Formal partnership where GIMS adoption is recognized in underwriting consideration or loss-control credits.

03

Co-Sponsored Adoption

Insurer and operator share the cost of implementation; the insurer benefits from cleaner future claims.

04

Direct Integration

Read-only API access for the insurer's adjusters and surveyors during claim investigation, with operator consent.

Why partner with us

The case for insurer involvement is operational, not theoretical.

Every benefit below is grounded in what underwriters and adjusters already say they need from insureds. GIMS just makes those needs systematic — and that's where the value to the insurer compounds.

01
Faster, cleaner claim adjudication

Adjusters and surveyors arrive to a complete documentation packet instead of a fragmented paper trail. Claim cycles measured in weeks, not quarters.

02
Stronger subrogation position

Chain-of-custody evidence is exactly what subrogation teams need to recover from third-party carriers, port operators, or counterparties. GIMS provides it natively.

03
Reduced claims fraud exposure

Pre-loss photographic records, timestamped condition states, and immutable audit trails make valuation inflation and post-loss fabrication materially harder.

04
Better risk modelling data

For partners with API access, GIMS-equipped insureds become a richer data source for portfolio-level risk modelling, pricing precision, and loss forecasting.

05
A loss-control story for your insureds

Recommending GIMS positions the underwriter as a partner in operational improvement — not just a counterparty negotiating premiums.

A note on what we do and don't claim. GIMS is enterprise inventory and asset tracking software. We do not underwrite policies, set premiums, or guarantee specific underwriting outcomes — those decisions belong to insurers and brokers. What we do is give operators (and, with their consent, their insurers) the data substrate that makes claims defensible, adjudication faster, and underwriting better-informed. Any premium considerations, loss-control credits, or formal recognition of GIMS adoption are at the discretion of the partnering insurance carrier.
For insurance partners

Let's design a partnership that works for both sides.

Whether you're a marine underwriter, a P&I club, a broker, or a reinsurance facility — we'd like to understand your insureds' specific documentation pain points and design something tailored.
