EPIC Insurance Names Leadership for Construction & Infrastructure Group
EPIC Insurance Brokers & Consultants (“EPIC”) has announced the formation of a national leadership team to oversee its recently established Construction & Infrastructure Group (“C&I Group”). This initiative underscores EPIC’s commitment to delivering tailored risk management solutions for a diverse range of clients in the construction and infrastructure sectors.
A Comprehensive Approach to Construction & Infrastructure Risk Management
The EPIC C&I Group is designed to support a broad spectrum of construction and infrastructure professionals, including general contractors, specialty contractors, architects and engineers, real estate and institutional owners and developers, energy and environmental service firms, and construction material suppliers. The group aims to provide these clients with industry-specific risk management strategies that address their unique challenges and operational risks.
Brian Tanner has been appointed as the President of the C&I Group. Tanner has been with EPIC since 2014, playing a key role in expanding the company’s construction footprint in the Southeast. In his new role, he will focus on client service development and delivery, fostering collaboration among C&I team members across different regions, and driving the group’s strategic growth objectives. His leadership is expected to further solidify EPIC’s position as a premier provider of risk management solutions for the construction and infrastructure industry.
Leadership and Expertise
Tanner will be supported by industry veterans Hugh Coyle, who has been named the National Project Solutions Practice Leader, and Dan Edgett, who will serve as the Director of Carrier Partnerships. Their combined expertise will be instrumental in enhancing EPIC’s offerings and fostering strategic relationships that benefit clients.
“The level of expertise in the C&I Group is second to none,” said Tanner. “I am honored to lead a team of professionals devoted to our clients in the construction industry. Our goal is to create value for our clients through innovative risk management solutions.”
Gregg Bundschuh, EPIC’s Chief Growth Officer and the Executive Sponsor of the C&I Group, emphasized the firm’s client-centric approach: “The C&I Group was established with our clients in mind. We are dedicated to working as a cohesive and integrated team to deliver solutions that best position our clients for success. That team is comprised not only of construction insurance specialists but also industry leaders, including former general counsel, construction lawyers, safety and loss control specialists, and licensed engineers and architects. Our commitment is to provide an unparalleled client experience that sets us apart from the rest.”
Tailored Solutions for the Construction Industry
EPIC’s C&I Group aims to address the most pressing challenges facing construction and infrastructure firms today, such as evolving regulatory requirements, supply chain disruptions, workforce safety, and emerging technologies. The group will provide innovative risk management solutions tailored to these challenges, ensuring that clients can operate efficiently and securely.
The firm’s ability to integrate specialized knowledge across multiple disciplines—including legal, engineering, and insurance—positions EPIC as a leading provider of comprehensive risk management services. The C&I Group will focus on offering cutting-edge solutions, including risk assessment models, loss control strategies, and insurance programs designed to mitigate financial exposure for construction firms of all sizes.
Commitment to Collaboration and Growth
By leveraging the expertise of its leadership team, EPIC is poised to drive growth within the C&I sector. The company will emphasize collaboration among its regional offices to streamline service delivery and provide clients with localized expertise supported by a national network of specialists.
With the leadership team now in place, the C&I Group will continue developing its strategic initiatives, ensuring that its clients benefit from innovative, data-driven risk management solutions that adapt to an ever-changing industry landscape.
