The Republic Group has been positioning itself for vigorous growth. To help ease any accompanying growing pains, Frank Vaccaro focused on four goals for the IT department when he became the group's vice president of information systems almost 18 months ago.
"Being able to keep up with the growth the company is expecting, both organically and through acquisitions, is our biggest challenge," Vaccaro says. "When we acquire a company or book of business, we need to be prepared to integrate it and keep the costs of IT delivery down."
Since joining the property/casualty carrier in April 2006, Vaccaro has concentrated on reorganizing the IT department to better serve the company's business units, assessing its IT talent, developing a project management methodology, and implementing a flexible technology infrastructure.
