## Overview

Insurance Data Solutions (IDS) is a bordereaux management and data-services
provider for MGAs, coverholders, brokers and Lloyd's managing agents in the
UK P&C and specialty market. The company was founded in 2006 by Paul
Johnson and traded as New City Software Ltd for most of its history before
renaming to Insurance Data Solutions Ltd in August 2024.

Its flagship product, the IDS Bordereaux Solution, automates
delegated-authority data flows between coverholders, MGAs, brokers and
Lloyd's insurers: binder setup and limit tracking, bordereaux processing
for risk, premium and claims data, configurable data-quality validation
rules, financial reconciliation and credit control, audit tracking, and
Power BI reporting. A dedicated integration tool converts bordereaux data
into RiskLink format for catastrophe modelling and supplies granular
pricing data to Lloyd's insurers. Beyond bordereaux, IDS offers Power
BI-based insurance analytics, system-to-system data migration, legacy-data
archiving, and bespoke software development.

IDS is bootstrapped and privately owned, with no external funding rounds
identified. It employs 11-50 people, including insurance-industry data
analysts, testers, SQL developers and BI specialists. Its client base spans
50+ named insurers, brokers and MGAs drawn from the London Market and wider
UK insurance industry, per the company's published case studies and client
listings.
