Applied Launches New Benefits Innovation, Making Applied Epic the Hub for Benefits Management

Chicago, IL., Feb. 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Applied Systems® today announced a major milestone in the evolution of Applied Epic®, unveiling a new Benefits experience that brings Benefits workflows, automation, and connectivity into a single hub for benefits management. Purpose-built for the way benefits teams operate, the Applied Epic Benefits experience centralizes plan and client management, streamlines renewals and servicing, and reduces the manual work historically required to manage Benefits business across disconnected tools or P&C-first systems.

This release builds on last year’s launch of the Applied Epic Benefits Overview, expanding plan management workflows and introducing intelligent pre-fill automation to deliver a complete, end-to-end Benefits policy lifecycle experience within the industry’s leading agency management platform. With these enhancements, Applied Epic becomes the only enterprise-grade AMS that enables agencies to manage both P&C and Benefits in one unified system while preserving the specialized workflows Benefits teams require.

Key outcomes for customers include:

“Benefits is one of the fastest-growing revenue streams for agencies, and yet Benefits teams have long had to fragment workflows across two systems or work around tools that weren't holistically built to meet their industry's needs,” said Tammi Shapiro, SVP & general manager of benefits solutions, Applied Systems. “By delivering a connected experience with purpose-built workflows and AI-assisted automation, we’re empowering Benefits brokers to shift their focus from manual tasks to strategic client engagement and growth.”
