Damage assessment
The damage assessment should be carried out in three phases:
- Immediate measures (phase 1):
- Analysis of the possible damage and initiation of the necessary damage reduction measures
- Collection of suitable statistical bases on the basis of the accounting system of the policyholder/damaged party
- Analysis and continuous monitoring (phase 2):
- Data analysis and tabular evaluations for later damage calculation
- Development of basics for the calculation of payments on account to be made
- Ongoing monitoring of damage mitigation measures and their costs
- Damage calculation (phase 3):
- Separation of the variable and fixed costs saved due to the business interruption/damaging event.
- Ongoing discussion of the findings with the insurer and the policyholder/damaged party or his attorney
- Development of a solution acceptable to all sides through coordinated and joint approach
