HARTLAND, WI--(Marketwire - September 18, 2009) - AQS, Inc., a provider of policy administration
systems for property/casualty insurance, today announced that Western
Reserve Group's Commercial Auto business went live on AQS Access in Ohio
and Indiana on September 1. Western Reserve licensed AQS Access -- plus
ISO Rating Service -- for all its commercial lines in Ohio and Indiana. In
time, all those lines will be converted to AQS.
"We need a system that will allow us to quickly react to the ever changing
market needs," said Randy Donnamiller, Commercial Lines Manager for Western
Reserve. "We have to be able to remain current with ISO rates, rules, and
forms and implement our own proprietary rates and forms. We look forward
to our continuing partnership with AQS as the industry and technology
continue to evolve."
AQS Access has rate-quote, underwriting, and policy-management capabilities
for all P&C lines -- including self-service options for product
