Ton,

If you already have Remedy in house for other reasons then ARS is a
good choice to develop such an application.

Just to be clear.. IMHO...
  ARS is a good place for that kind of an application (much better
then MS Office documents) You will likely want a developer around to
build/tweak the application as your business needs change, but you
might even be capable of doing that yourself. ( or someone in the CIO
office should be able to help.)

I'm tempted to agree that Remedy might be a bit more expensive a solution
than 15 records a day might require, meaning that there may well be cheaper
acceptable alternatives out there.

But as you're evaluating your options, consider this:  Claims management
must maintain a chain of evidence and time/user stamping that is bulletproof
enough to be admissable in court.  Remedy has those mechanisms built in,
even in a custom-built application.  Any other usable product would have to
have those, too.

I would bet that a decent Remedy developer could build an app. like this in
a month or so, though you may find better alternatives in an off-the-shelf
non-Remedy product that's built to do what you need.

Possible need for a software system that allows case management, accident
reporting, cost accumulation, and billing. Small number of claims, approx 15
a day. Currently standard MS office products are used to do this but is
cumbersome
