About David Tweedy
Nearly Five Decades of Risk Management & RMIS Experience
Tweedy Risk Information Consulting was founded by David A. Tweedy, an independent risk-management consultant with nearly five decades of experience spanning claims, risk management, consulting, and risk-management technology.
David's career and expertise have focused particularly on Risk Management Information
Systems (RMIS), claims technology, risk-management processes, and the evaluation of technology used by organizations to manage risk information.
His approach is straightforward:
Technology should serve the organization's risk-management strategy—not the other way around.
Independent Risk Management Consulting
Organizations make significant investments in risk-management systems and technology. Selecting the right platform requires more than comparing software features.
It requires an understanding of how the organization manages claims, policies, data, reporting, workflows, technology, and strategic objectives.
David provides an independent perspective to help organizations understand those requirements and evaluate the available options.
Because Tweedy Risk Information Consulting LLC does not sell RMIS software, recommendations are not driven by a software vendor relationship.
RMIS Experience
David has evaluated the RMIS marketplace through multiple generations of technology.
Beginning in 1985, he developed successive generations of comprehensive evaluations of RMIS systems and the marketplace, including The RMIS Review and later the RMIS Report.
That experience provides a perspective that extends beyond individual software products. It includes an understanding of how RMIS technology has evolved and how organizations can evaluate systems based on their actual business and operational requirements.
Professional Background
David's professional experience includes work across claims, risk management, consulting, and technology. According to his professional background, he has worked with organizations including Liberty Mutual Insurance Company, Betterley Risk Consultants, Deloitte, IBM Global Services, Marsh Risk Consulting, and Albert Risk Management Consultants, in addition to his own consulting practices.
Education & Credentials
David Tweedy holds a Bachelor of Science degree, Magna Cum Laude, from the University of Massachusetts and a Master of Business Administration from the University of Rhode Island. He also holds the Certified Management Consultant (CMC) designation.
A Practical Approach to Technology Decisions
David's consulting philosophy is based on a simple principle:
Understand the organization's needs first. Evaluate the technology second.
Rather than promoting a particular software platform, Tweedy Risk Information Consulting helps organizations understand their requirements, evaluate alternatives, and make informed decisions about RMIS, claims technology, and risk-management processes.
A New Chapter in Independent Consulting
After decades of consulting and developing independent perspectives on the RMIS marketplace, David Tweedy returned to active consulting through Tweedy Risk Information Consulting with a renewed focus on RMIS, claims technology, risk pools, and independent risk-management technology consulting.
The mission remains the same:
Help organizations make better risk-management and technology decisions through objective, experienced advice.
