Neglected maintenance of commercial properties is one of the largest and most overlooked challenges in the insurance and property sectors, with a strong correlation to eventual insurance claims. Yet trillions of dollars in property assets are being managed with spreadsheets and sticky notes, according to Jon DeWald, CEO and co-founder of HelixIntel.
Jon explains how this lack of digital infrastructure creates "invisible risk" that compounds into costly, preventable insurance claims. For example, a small roof penetration after a hailstorm, left uninspected by maintenance teams, becomes water intrusion, then structural damage, then a full roof replacement. "That minor repair, which would have cost you maybe fifty or a hundred dollars, you're now replacing a full roof," he said. That pattern, small and preventable problems compounding into major losses, is what HelixIntel is built to interrupt.
Among the topics discussed in this episode:
- The Direct Link Between Maintenance and Claims
- Why HelixIntel Chose the Insurance Ecosystem
- New Visibility for Underwriters and Risk Managers
