Our [data analysis](https://shepherdinsurance.com/blog/shepherd-savings-preferred-insurance-for-the-best-builders) affirmed this bet: we found significant correlations between reduced General Liability claim frequency and specific behaviors among users of these tools. These results built the foundation of Shepherd Savings. \n\nShepherd Savings is a partnership program designed to benefit technology-enabled contractors. When a contractor is actively using one of our technology partners, they are eligible to receive premium savings of up to 25% by incorporating their usage data into our underwriting process. The data allows our team to provide ongoing risk control feedback throughout the policy term, helping contractors understand what type of engagement leads to the best safety or quality outcomes.\n\nUpon receiving the submission for this contractor practice program, Shepherd quickly identified that the client was already implementing Procore to enhance their QA/QC programs. Our team provided a Shepherd Savings proposal offering immediate premium savings in recognition of their Procore adoption.\n\nThe client then enrolled in our data-sharing partnership with Procore, giving Shepherd access to their monthly usage metrics. This allows our team to analyze how they're utilizing the platform and provide ongoing feedback to optimize for improved safety outcomes. We do this through our monthly impact reports sent to the client with the data insights. As the contractor implements our recommended risk-reducing behaviors and shows continued strong adoption throughout the policy term, Shepherd will use this data to offer maximum premium savings at time of renewal. \n\nThe Shepherd Savings program extends beyond rewarding technology investments—we aim to be an active partner in integrating these technologies into clients' comprehensive risk management strategies. By recognizing these efforts with financial benefits, we support contractors' continued investments in innovative solutions that enhance jobsite safety and contribute to building a safer, more sustainable construction future."
