For Underwriters and Brokers

The LIR is Occusurv's primary structured output — designed for underwriting decisions, not survey compliance. It contains weighted, prioritised exposure data: real-world PML analysis, hidden BI exposure assessment, fire behaviour and compartmentation findings, and protection reality evaluation. It is built for the underwriting decision, not the survey file.

A conventional risk survey documents physical conditions and produces a narrative report. Occusurv's assessment is structured around a different question: what will actually drive loss here? The field work is different. The output is different. The LIR is weighted and decision-relevant — built to inform an underwriting position, not confirm that a site was visited.

It is the process of tracking whether underwriting assumptions remain accurate between survey and renewal. Our governance platform provides structured tracking — so the underwriting position at renewal reflects operational reality, not a static snapshot from the previous survey cycle. 

Complex industrial, manufacturing, warehousing, and commercial risks — where underwriting visibility genuinely matters and where the gap between conventional survey output and real-world loss-driving exposure is most consequential.

For Risk-Heavy Businesses

A structured assessment of the loss-driving factors most relevant to the underwriting decision — not a checklist inspection. Having a senior operational person available (maintenance manager, operations director, or similar) significantly improves accuracy. The process is straightforward and non-disruptive to operations. 

Yes. We work with risk-heavy businesses that want to understand their loss-driving exposures proactively. A structured understanding of where your real exposure sits is valuable independent of the insurance relationship — and puts you in a materially stronger position when insurers do request assessments.
