The strategy study proposed a Multinational system with two main elements: gathering underwriting and reinsurance details locally and drawing together data automatically for analysis by underwriters and managers. The study recognised the role of the Q&A system for data entry and suggested that this might continue to be used (00199, 00223). The study has a vision of new X systems progressively taking over the functionality of local operating mainframes (00153) although by the end of the study there was an acceptance that adminstrative and accounting would continue to be handled by the mainframes (00226). The PC LAN architecture for the system appeared early in the strategy study (00168).
