eComp
The Modern Replacement for FASAT/EIM
Things Have Changed Since 1994
When FASAT was introduced, the insurance compensation landscape was vastly different. Today's requirements demand cloud scalability, real-time analytics, multilingual support, and security standards that didn't exist three decades ago. eComp is a modern, cloud-native system built from the ground up to meet 21st-century expectations while providing a straightforward upgrade path from FASAT/EIM. It's not just an evolution—it's a complete reimagining of insurance compensation administration using contemporary architecture, technology, and best practices.
