Risk control resources for architects and engineers

The mainstay of UFG Risk Control is a commitment to people. We partner with our insureds to learn about their business through a holistic risk-management approach based on open, candid conversations. This two-way discussion sets us apart — allowing us to apply expertise that runs deeper than checking boxes and running reports — to offer trusted recommendations. Our consultants partner with companies to identify exposures and risks, playing a role in protecting the business and the people who work there.

Risk control is part of UFG’s collective of in-house experts providing consistency and dependability that agents expect when doing business with us. Our team — backed by an average of nearly 25 years of safety and risk experience — puts specialized skills and advanced technology to work for a broad range of industries, including architects and engineers. Exemplary consultative services are available to eligible policyholders, such as:
  • Risk assessments that include holistic review of operations.
  • Business sustainability plans.
  • Flexible, virtual assessments with tenured risk consultants.
  • Vehicle-use policy and fleet safety program.
  • Builders risk and construction defect hazards.
  • Use of thermal imaging technology.
  • Thought-leadership solutions to emerging threats.
  • Identifying benefits of quality assurance and quality control processes.
  • Access to digital resources.
It’s our pleasure to offer these downloadable online resources to help architectural and engineering firms prevent losses and promote safe working environments.
