Beacon Mutual is pleased to announce that we have replaced mail audits with a convenient self-service, self-paced online audit system. Beacon is collaborating with Zoom Audits LLC . Policyholders can complete their premium audit through a secure, simple, and accurate online solution.
Online audits are intended for small and medium businesses that juggle multiple tasks in their daily operations and are looking to simplify the audit process.
When you are due for a premium audit, you will receive a letter in the mail from Zoom Audits LLC, which provides access and instructions on how to complete the audit online. You will experience a guided process that is easy to understand and live help is available every step of the way.
The online audit process asks simple questions in a logical sequence that guides our customers through the online audit to completion. The online audit process allows the customers the freedom to complete the tasks associated with their audit that best fit their schedule.
When a policyholder is selected for an online audit, your agent will also receive an awareness notification in BEACONNECT.

Premium audits are standard practice in the insurance industry and they should not be considered anything more than routine business practice. The insurance policy permits Beacon to inspect premises and review your financial records related to applicable exposures. Premium audit data is needed for rate-making purposes and to ensure you are paying the correct premium based on your business exposures.
If you received a letter to conduct an audit via ZOOM Audits web portal, the letter will outline what records you will need to complete the online audit. Upon your initial login, the records required are also displayed for your review. You may log in to the web portal as often as necessary to complete the audit assignment.
