SIMS Claims is a comprehensive property/casualty claims management system designed to maximize efficiency and profitability in day-to-day operations. The browser-based system leverages the .NET platform, Web Services, XML-based business rules, and SQL Server relational databases.
Systema says SIMS Claims will enable B&L's two insurance companies—Protective Insurance Co. and Sagamore Insurance Co.—to consolidate operations from six claims systems on to one architecturally strong platform.
"Over the years, our company grew organically to offer a complex mix of insurance products, including auto, liability and workers' compensation coverage to the motor carrier industry," said Jeff Price, director of IT at Baldwin & Lyons. "As we added new products, we slowly added new claim systems, which created a complex environment and a multiplicative effect on the cost of our IT operations. Besides being the right platform on which to consolidate, we chose SIMS Claims for the completeness of the product and its out-of-the-box capabilities."
