Alpine Intel launched NFE in January 2024 after conducting client-focused research and hearing concerns of lengthy fire investigations and inconclusive reports.

NFE has addressed these pain points to provide accurate investigations with reduced cycle times and create the next phase of fire reporting that:

Takes less time from assignment submission to report delivery
Provides actionable information
Is written by certified fire investigators who train in customer service, report writing, and litigation support, plus follow National Fire Protection Association standards
Empowers carriers and attorneys with plausible causes, evidence collection, and next steps

More than half of NFE survey respondents said the new reports were more useful than other origin and cause reports, and they received a satisfaction rating of 4.82 out of 5.

An expert panel selected the 2024 Luminaries honorees based on how well they stated and achieved goals related to the nomination category; how impactful their work has been; how dedicated the nominee has been to furthering modernization and humanization in the P&C industry; and how committed the nominee has been to high ethical standards, service, and excellence.

This recognition is presented by PropertyCasualty360.com, a leading P&C insurance industry news and events outlet that is part of ALM, a global information, data, intelligence, and content company.
