CHARLOTTE, NC, UNITED STATES, April 28, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Amwins Program Underwriters (APU) today announced a new carrier relationship to support its Architects & Engineers (A&E) program. The program, which provides professional liability coverage for architectural and engineering firms nationwide, is now backed by an A+ XV-rated carrier as rated by A.M. Best, bringing enhanced financial strength and long-term stability to the program.

The new carrier relationship enables APU to deliver meaningful program enhancements, including improved paper and financial strength, increased underwriting authority, dynamic pricing and greater control over claims oversight and outcomes. APU’s existing program appetite, limits, eligible classes, and coverage terms remain unchanged.

“This is a meaningful step forward for our A&E program and the brokers and clients who depend on it,” said Brett Fowler, Vice President at APU and A&E Program Manager. “Securing a highly rated, financially strong carrier reflects our commitment to long-term stability in this space. Architects, engineers, and design professionals operate in complex, high-stakes environments, and they deserve a program backed by a partner that is equally committed to growing with them. We’re excited to bring this enhanced offering to market and look forward to continuing to deliver the responsive service and thorough underwriting our agents have come to expect from APU A&E.”

The APU A&E program is designed for firms with annual revenues of $750K and above, offering professional liability coverage for architects, engineers, other design professionals, and agency construction managers. The program provides primary practice and follow-form excess policy limits up to $5M per claim / $5M aggregate, along with a suite of flexible coverages that can be tailored to individual firm needs—including pre-claims and subpoena assistance, crisis management, pollution, technology, worldwide coverage, voluntary mediation credit, and first dollar defense options for select risks. Distributed through wholesale brokers and retail partners, coverage is currently available on a non-admitted basis in all states except Florida.
