London-based insurance software house TriSystems has developed an internet version of its underwriting administration system IMACS.
TriSystems, which acquired the IMACS product in mid-2001 from Olympic Underwriting Services, said the new system, IMACS Evolution, made underwriting support systems more accessible and more cost-effective to roll out and update.
TriSystems director Jeff Ward said: "IMACS Evolution offers the global market the opportunity to operate on a global basis through the web, without being bound by the issues of where the technology is sited."
The software, which is Java-based, can be used in a normal office network, directly through the web or through a virtual private network.
This means users can have instant remote access to their data - for example, when visiting a client - using exactly the same interface and functionality that they have in the office.
Four companies, including claims and runoff management company Claims Management Group have already bought the package.
Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
