Article Abstract:
The growing costs of on-line information can be controlled by a properly managed strategy of value optimization. The insurance industry depends on current, accurate information, and on-line services are an essential information tool. To optimize the benefits of this tool, a detailed understanding of on-line service use is required. Cost savings can be found through avoiding redundancies, negotiating volume discounts and using the most direct route to the information required.
