The insurance technology setting a new standard for disaster response

Suncorp's recently launched Disaster Management Centre, which forms part of Suncorp's $25 million job and investment package in Queensland, physically connects Suncorp's people with cutting-edge technology and data. The aim is to deploy resources faster so homes and communities can be rebuilt sooner - and be better protected in the future.

While aspects of the technology have been operational since the 2022 East Coast flooding, this is the first time the technology, data and capabilities have been housed under one roof.

"While we used a lot of this technology in responding to the severe events on the east coast of Australia in 2022, we asked ourselves how could we coordinate and use this information in a better way to help our teams, community partners and customers?", explained Suncorp CEO Steve Johnston.
