September 4, 2025 – Dyad and Innovative Program Solutions (IPS), a full-service Managing General Agent (MGA) practice and a division of Holmes Murphy—one of the nation’s largest independent insurance brokerages—are excited to announce the successful launch of Dyad’s ALIS DX platform.
IPS selected the ALIS DX platform for its unmatched configurability, robust built-in workflows, and proven ability to support a wide variety of products, lines of business, carrier requirements, and market segments. In ALIS DX platform, IPS found an innovative, forward-thinking solution capable of meeting its immediate operational needs as well as long-term strategic goals.
“Our partnership with Dyad is grounded in creativity, collaboration, and a shared focus on delivering results,” said Tim Anders, President of IPS. “The ALIS DX platform gives us the speed, configurability, and support we need to bring our specialized programs to market faster while maintaining the highest standards of service for our clients.”
In addition to the core capabilities of ALIS DX, IPS has plans to use the ALIS Agent Portal, which will allow the company’s insurance agents to submit business directly to IPS through ALIS DX instead of sending it via email. This streamlined process will improve efficiency for both IPS and its agency partners, saving valuable time and enabling faster delivery of quotes. By enhancing speed-to-quote and speed-to-bind, IPS will be able to provide a better experience for agents and insureds alike.
“We are honored to support the growth initiatives of IPS and Holmes Murphy,” said Ryan Bosworth, Chief Sales Officer at Dyad. “Their trust in Dyad and in the ALIS platform is incredibly valuable to us. It’s a testament to the strength of ALIS DX as a solution for specialty programs, and we are honored to support their mission to deliver innovative, high-impact insurance products.”
