In the aftermath of an emergency, filing insurance claims and documenting the damages are crucial for the recovery process. Facilities Management Service Providers can play a vital role in this aspect by assisting bowling center owners in navigating the insurance claims process. Here’s how having a trusted facilities management service provider can help:

Documenting Damages: Facilities Management Service Providers can promptly assess and document the damages caused by the emergency. They can take detailed photographs, gather relevant evidence, and create comprehensive damage reports. This documentation serves as critical evidence for insurance claims and helps ensure that all damages are properly accounted for.

Understanding Insurance Policies: FM Service Providers often have experience working with insurance providers and a good understanding of insurance policies relevant to bowling centers. They can review the insurance coverage, including property, liability, and business interruption insurance, to identify the specific provisions that apply to the emergency situation. This knowledge helps in determining what damages and losses are covered by the insurance policy.

Coordinating with Insurance Providers: Facilities Management Service Providers can act as a liaison between the bowling center owner and the insurance company. They can assist in communicating and coordinating with the insurance adjusters, providing them with the necessary documentation, and answering any questions they may have. This proactive involvement ensures a smoother and more efficient claims process.

Properly Estimating the Damages: Facilities Management Service Providers can help accurately assess the extent of the damages and losses incurred during the emergency. A full-service FM provider such as Watterson can also provide repair and restoration services as well as supply accurate cost estimates for repairs, replacements, and any other necessary remediation measures. This ensures that the insurance claim reflects the true value of the damages suffered by the bowling center.

Expedited Claims Process: With their knowledge of the insurance industry and claims procedures,  Facilities Management Service Providers can help expedite the claims process. They can ensure that all required documentation is submitted promptly, follow up on the claim’s progress, and provide any additional information or evidence as requested by the insurance provider. Their proactive approach can help facilitate a quicker resolution of the insurance claim.

By leveraging the expertise of a trusted Facilities Management Service Provider, bowling center owners can navigate the often complex and time-consuming insurance claims process more effectively. This allows them to focus on the recovery and restoration efforts, ensuring that the bowling center can reopen and resume operations as soon as possible.
