FGS
Hosts “Pack Out” Inventory Seminar
On Wednesday November 8, 2006, First General
Services’ personnel hosted a presentation on the application
and usefulness of its Pack Out Inventory (POI) software
program for adjusters and contents’ specialists from several
insurance companies.
Conducted by Tyler Townsend of Assured Software, the
seminar highlighted the use of POI as a means of
inventorying and pricing of both salvageable and
non-salvageable household items involved in contents losses.
The unique application of POI by FGS’
certified contents specialists will streamline and simplify
the inventory of items involved in losses, thus expediting the
claims settlement process.
With personnel specially trained and certified through
the Restoration Alliance, FGS is prepared to apply the POI
capability to both large and small losses to the benefit and
satisfaction of property owners and insurance personnel, in
order to ultimately resolve the claims.
Insurance personnel interested in learning more about POI
and its application should contact First General Services
through dsciandra@firstgeneralservice.com
