1 The New Extended Warranty System
Tavant Warranty Management System (TWMS) Ali Isham – Channel Communications Mgr. Dennis Carey – Extended Warranty Who is Tavant? Company who developed the tool (just as Office is made by Microsoft). Tavant is not a 3rd party warranty administrator, but rather a software vendor Tavant has developed warranty systems for IR since the early 2000s and IR is invested in the Tavant business - IR has 19.5% equity in Tavant (part of the family)

2 TWMS - The Next Generation in
Why a new EW System? Current System Outdated Adapt to Changing Business Environment Opportunity to Improve Choices / Flexibility Functionality Final push towards paperless Only 10-12% currently using paper Align with Ingersoll Rand Enterprise Time to make a change as our current system is 20 years old and outdated The new system creates more flexibility that will allow us to keep up with the changing business environment The system will also allow you more Choices, Flexibility and Functionality in the future TWMS - The Next Generation in Warranty Management

3 TWMS: Dealer Benefits Modify Agreements Online Claim Favorites
Name & Address Ownership Transfer System maintains audit trail Favorites Save submitted Applications for re-use Online Claim Pre-Authorization process Upload & Attach required documents Inspection reports Service Tickets Parts Invoices Works anywhere you have an internet connection! Modify agreements – you will be able to initiate the modification of an agreement through the Tavant system rather than you (or the homeowner) calling the Extended Warranty Dept. You will also be able to initiate the process for ownership transfers. Having this capability helps you serve your customers better. Favorites will allow you to save submitted applications for re-use – so if you only have two types of warranty coverage that you offer homeowners, you can place them in favorites so that you can quickly access them without searching through a long list of options each time. Currently all claim pre-authorizations are done via phone - Online pre-authorization will allow approvals within 1 business day The new system will allow you to upload and attach required documents rather than faxing them – this will help they are received and reduce follow-up with the Extended Warranty Dept. If you have a mobile device/laptop, you can access the Tavant system while you are away from your dealership if you ever need to do so. All of this will reduce time and effort and help you work more efficiently Reduce Time and Effort!
