SAFECO adds New Functionality to its TransactNOW Implementation

Windsor, CT — Safeco Insurance added commercial lines endorsements to their existing TransactNOW implementation. Since March 2003, AMS agents representing Safeco have used TransactNOW for both personal and commercial lines inquiries, Carrier Passport and personal endorsement processing. The personal lines new business data bridge was added in April 2005 and commercial lines new business data bridge for BOP was added in March 2006.

TransactNOW enables AMS management system customers to process business transactions with carriers via a real-time, single-entry workflow, without leaving their system. Initially launched with billing and claim inquiries, AMS added policy view inquiries, Carrier Passport, real-time endorsements, quote-and-issue and much more. Carrier Passport enables users to go directly from the TransactNOW inquiry to the full spectrum of functionality available through the carrier's Web site without manually having to open up a new browser window.

Since its launch early in 2003, more than 4,000 agencies are actively using TransactNOW. TransactNOW uses ACORD standards and XML technology to integrate carrier Web site functionality into agency management system workflow. This means transactions and carriers can be rapidly added and agents can rapidly deploy TransactNOW. Developed in close cooperation with The AMS Users' Group, TransactNOW is available to agencies using all AMS management system products. For further information, contact AMS at iisg@amsworld.com.
