Estimating the term…
This whole farm assurance and actuarial system is a multi-enterprise certification system that undertakes a modular approach, which allows farms to obtain certification for different enterprises without the need for duplication of inspections or administration. This system includes a plurality of assurance procedures separated into modules. A first module of procedures is applicable to farm independent criteria for meeting requirements of a farm regardless of the type of farm. A second module of procedures is applicable to enterprise-specific criteria for meeting requirements of a first enterprise type, and a third module of procedures applicable to enterprise-specific criteria for meeting requirements of a second enterprise type. The farm is required to comply with requirements of the first module before the farm can be certified for either of the second or third modules. In another embodiment, the system includes additional modules of procedures applicable to enterprise-specific criteria for meeting requirements of a respective enterprise type. Exemplary systems may also include a module of procedures for collection of insurance risk assessment data used for assessing the risk of a predetermined insurable event at the farm.
A multi-enterprise certification system allowing farms to obtain certification for different enterprises without the need for duplication of inspections or administration, the system comprising a plurality of assurance procedures separated into modules, a first module of procedures applicable to farm independent criteria for meeting requirements of a farm having at least a first enterprise type and a second enterprise type, a second module of procedures applicable to first enterprise specific criteria for meeting requirements of a first enterprise type, and a third module of procedures applicable to second enterprise specific criteria for meeting requirements of a second enterprise type, wherein any one of the farms is required to comply with the requirements of said first module before the one farm can be certified for either of said second or third modules.
A method for allowing farms to obtain certification for different enterprises without the need for duplication of inspections or administration, the method comprising assessing farm independent criteria using a first module of procedures for meeting requirements of a farm having at least a first enterprise type and a second enterprise type, assessing first enterprise specific criteria using a second module of procedures different than the first module of procedures for meeting requirements of the first enterprise type, assessing second enterprise specific criteria using a third module of procedures different than the first or second module of procedures for meeting requirements of the second enterprise type, and determining that the farm complies with the requirements of the first module before the farm can be certified as meeting the requirements of either the second or third module.
A multi-enterprise certification system allowing farms to obtain certification for different enterprises without the need for duplication of inspections or administration, the system comprising means for assessing farm independent criteria using a first module of procedures for meeting requirements of a farm having at least a first enterprise type and a second enterprise type, means for assessing first enterprise specific criteria using a second module of procedures different than the first module of procedures for meeting requirements of the first enterprise type, means for assessing second enterprise specific criteria using a third module of procedures different than the first or second module of procedures for meeting requirements of the second enterprise type, and means for determining that the farm complies with the requirements of the first module before the farm can be certified as meeting the requirements of either the second or third module.
