Acord 127 records details of all the drivers, vehicles, and rental/lease details a business employs. While the Acord 127 standardizes the format of data entry for business auto insurance, the exercise of digitizing the paper form still remains a manual responsibility. Not surprisingly, the Insurtech industry is on a boom recently and offers endless automation solutions to insurers and agencies to streamline their operations. 70-80% automation is possible for processes that run on rules – which holds true for Acord forms since they are not only structured but also standardized to be compatible across regions.
The Acord 127, also known as Business Auto Section, is an insurance document that covers policy information of commercial vehicles of a client, including but not limited to lists of drivers, operating hours of the business, vehicle use schedules, etc.
The nature of insurance coverage required by commercial vehicles is different from personal vehicles. Business auto insurance covers a wide range of scenarios and legal aspects that personal vehicle insurance cannot cater to.
Through Acord 127, a business can cover all its vehicles - whether passenger cars, freighters, buses, or any other - with suitable insurance and liability limits.
By insuring your business automobiles through Acord 127 forms, you ensure compliance of your business with state or local laws.
Acord 127 accounts for a wide range of vehicles, such as trucks, buses, cars, trailers, small and big haulers, etc., giving you a wide umbrella of security against damages and the complex legal issues corresponding to vehicle type.
Business auto insurance can be expanded to cover vehicles, drivers, and possibly the equipment carried by the vehicle as well through Acord 127.
