Improving customer experience, creating operational efficiencies and decreasing risk through a core system upgrade
BSG partnered with a leading South African retail bank to develop a rich client application for use in branches to create, maintain and update customer records.
- A system to optimise and improve end-to-end processes and address the inefficiencies eroding customers’ branch experience
- Overhaul of the poorly integrated branch delivery platform (BDP) and the user interface, which was dated in terms of design and functionality
- Analyse, define and document business requirement specifications to be used by developers when building the system enhancements
- Develop system enhancements with multiple integration points, based on business analysis, ensuring seamless integration with both internal and external systems
- Ensure internal staff are adequately skilled to manage the system through the development of learning and training interventions
- Facilitate a collaborative partnership between the business owners of the solution and IT (the suppliers of the change)
- Significant time reduction when opening an account, across ± 630 branches, between 2005 and 2010
- 25% overall time saved and 85% brand take-up in the first full year
- Reduction in paper wastage across the branch network
- Significant decrease in fraudulent activity as a result of stricter controls and increased visibility
Despite the challenges of working with legacy systems, BSG ensured the delivery of an improved customer experience through optimised operational efficiencies.
