## Overview

Helmsman Management Services LLC is a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Mutual Insurance, one of the nation's largest property and casualty insurers. Founded in 2003 and headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, Helmsman operates as a third-party administrator (TPA) serving large enterprises with complex risk management needs. With over USD 5.5 billion in losses under management across 24 operating locations, Helmsman provides specialized claims management, managed care coordination, and risk control services.

As a dedicated TPA for businesses typically employing 1,000 or more people, Helmsman manages workers compensation, auto, general liability, and commercial claims. Clients benefit from the operational independence of a specialized TPA combined with access to Liberty Mutual's technology platform, financial resources, and claims expertise.

Helmsman's RISKTRAC claims reporting platform gives clients real-time visibility into their claims inventory, enabling data-driven decisions to control total cost of risk. The company's integrated approach -- pairing claims administration with managed care and risk control -- distinguishes it from single-service TPAs.
