Ogon Consulting

What Ogon Consulting does

Ogon Consulting is a privately held Guidewire-focused systems integrator founded in 2016 and headquartered in San Jose, California, with delivery offices in Pickering and Scarborough (Canada) and Chennai (India). The company is the only systems integrator dedicated exclusively to Guidewire InsuranceNow, serving small to mid-sized P&C insurance carriers and managing general agents (MGAs) in North America with end-to-end implementation, upgrade, data migration, forms development, third-party integration, quality assurance, and 24/7 production support services. The firm augments its professional services with six proprietary platforms: SPITFIRE for data migration (processing 1,000+ entities per minute), FORTRESS for test automation, FLIGHTPLAN for rate revision simulation, Command Center for carrier administration, Skyway for policyholder self-service, and Jetstream (powered by Tuerri) for white-label mobile applications. All products are built on and integrate with the Guidewire API v5 framework for InsuranceNow.

Revenue is generated through four streams: project-based implementation services (fixed-price or T&M), fixed-cost product upgrades with warranty, pay-as-you-go 24/7 support and maintenance across six time zones, and one-time licensing of the proprietary software platforms. Go-to-market relies on enterprise field sales to insurance carriers and MGAs, augmented by the Guidewire PartnerConnect Select Consulting Alliance partnership and Guidewire Marketplace listing for co-marketing and referrals, with demand generation concentrated at the annual Guidewire Connections Conference. Ogon serves a named book of 8-15 North American clients including The Philadelphia Contributionship, Dryden Mutual, Rockingham Insurance, CSE Insurance, Co-operative Insurance Companies, NCJUA/NCIUA, Union Mutual, Mississippi Windstorm Underwriting Association, and CFM Insurance, with 70+ cumulative project deliveries and a reported 92% engagement satisfaction rate. The firm operates without disclosed external institutional investment and is led by co-founders Ankur Jaiswal (Director of Client Engagement) and Karthick Gopalakrishnan (Director of Technical Consulting), with a director-level bench covering consulting, delivery, QA, and strategy.
