Without high quality data underpinning it, the benefit of Navigate is compromised. That's why improving the data quality within Navigate is a key strategic goal for MIB in the years ahead.
Together with our members we'll improve the quality of information available and how we can incorporate new capabilities and services into Navigate.
Industry Data Working Group
Our Industry Data Working Group, brings together experts to help shape the development of a new set of data standards for motor policy and claims data, for the collective benefit of the industry and partners.
The group is working to develop options, assess the impact on the industry and put forward recommendations to the MIB Board.
The group consists of representatives from both technical and operational functional leads, such as underwriting, claims, finance, data and analytics.
Members represent a broad spectrum of perspectives from across the industry.
It plays a key role in developing new standards, but it's also essential that all organisations have the opportunity to contribute to this important work, so we'll also be seeking input from across the industry to support the activities of the Industry Data Working Group.
If you have any questions on the role of the group, please contact engagement@mib.org.uk
May 2025 update
Thank you to the Industry Data Working Group (IDWG), who met again in May.
Last year in the first phase of this data quality work, we developed and ran 41 business data quality rules against 42 million Navigate policy records, totalling more than 1.5 billion checks. We’re continuing to expand the scope of this work during 2025.
At the virtual event, the group explored the latest analysis and discussed what that meant for their organisation and the wider market. Further rule refinements will now take place and the group will meet again in July.
March Update
The Industry Data Working Group (IDWG) met in March to continue its work to improve data quality, starting with Navigate’s motor insurance policy data.
The group brings together experts from across the insurance industry who are helping to shape the development of a new set of data standards for motor policy and claims data in the platform. Comprising technical and operational specialists from areas such as underwriting, claims, finance, data and analytics, the IDWG represents a broad spectrum of perspectives.
The event was the group’s first in-person meeting of 2025 and members continued their work to define the next phase of developing data quality rules
In 2024 with the support of the IDWG we developed and ran 41 business data quality rules against 42 million Navigate policies, totalling more than 1.5 billion checks.
This year we’ll begin reporting against those rules as a way of highlighting strong data governance and to understand the level of work required to further improve data quality across the industry.
Without high quality data, the benefits of Navigate won't be maximised, so we’re grateful for the hard work of IDWG members who continue to give their time to this important work. Thank you to Polaris UK Limited for hosting the meeting.
