The Duck Creek Standard of Excellence Customer Award recognizes customers who achieve exceptional results by leveraging Duck Creek solutions to transform their organizations and help drive innovation across the insurance industry.

Suncorp has adopted Duck Creek OnDemand as the core platform underpinning its multi-year Digital Insurer program. The transformation program spans consumer (home and motor) and commercial insurance, leveraging Duck Creek Policy, Billing, Rating, and Clarity to deliver streamlined, digital-first experiences. These implementations enable simplified product structures, enhanced risk-based pricing, and scalable digital quote-and-buy journeys, while supporting rapid product deployment and improved operational efficiency across high-volume lines of business.

The program's first live deployment was delivered with joint venture partner AA Insurance New Zealand, and it is well into delivery for Suncorp's flagship Australian consumer brand AAMI.

"Digital Insurer's first deployment was a major milestone for our transformation program," said Katherine Carmody, Executive General Manager Digital Insurer at Suncorp. "This recognition reflects the strength of our partnership and the progress we've made in future-proofing our insurance business. I'm excited by the great results we can deliver for our customers, our people and our business."

"Digital Insurer highlights the impact of a well-executed, cloud-based transformation at scale," said Chris McCloskey, Chief Operating Officer of Duck Creek. "Their work demonstrates how insurers can modernize core systems, improve pricing sophistication, and deliver better experiences for both customers and employees."
