We use Kinetic Request for that. Some service items submit the logged-in user as the customer/requester, while others allow the logged in user to be entered as the the Contact person and submit someone else as the customer/requester. We used ARSPerl scripts to do the same in the past, but ARSPerl no longer works properly with ARS 7.1 anyway. You would have to do a fairly major customization of the Requester Console to get this kind of capability worked into it, and I would avoid that. I do not know if BMC Service Request Management can do this because we stopped evaluating it after seeing the pricing model. In addition to Kinetic Request, there are other non-BMC customer interfaces to ITSM on the market already (like the one Gidd just mentioned), but they solve a host of other customer self-service issues beyond just proxy ticket entry, and should be examined in that wider context.
