Corrections and Clarifications
As with any large directory of hundreds of vendors and products, mistakes made their way into our 2002 TechConnect buyers guide. Several companies products did not make it into the directory at press time as well.
We apologize for any errors; here are the corrected and additional listings.
In the Policy AdministrationGeneral category, we inadvertently listed Applied Systems as being in Ontario, Canada. Although the company maintains an office in Toronto, its headquarters is in beautiful University Park, Illinois.
In the Policy AdministrationP&C category, we listed P&C eComponents Plus as being made by MTW of Lenexa, Kans. In July 2001, MTW was acquired by The Innovation Group, which is headquartered in Hartford, Conn.
In the Underwriting category, we did not list complete information about the server compatibility of MPO Groups eAppCapture Fulfillment. The product runs on Windows NT/2000, ODBC, J2EE, DB2, and R/ODBMS servers. It is ACORD compliant.
Thanks to a domain name mix-up, we published incorrect information about Millbrook, maker of Beacon, in the Data Mining category. It is headquartered in Center Valley, Penn., and its correct domain is millbrookinc.com, not millbrook.com (which belongs to a different Millbrook making a different technology). The full, correct, listing is:
