Application Change to Drive Internal Efficiency

A cross-border payments business faced significant and growing demand from business stakeholders to deliver application changes that would drive operational efficiencies and create revenue opportunities. This was accompanied by the need to embed new ways of working within the organisation.

The Pre-IPO Checklist

Project delivery had been managed by the Transformation team, which lacked the specialist delivery and technical capabilities required to meet the new demands. At the same time, exhaustive processes had delayed the onboarding of specialist consulting skills required to resolve this. This was compounded by significant time pressures on the Technology Leadership Team.

The Qurated Project

The bank's CTO engaged Qurated to enable the delivery and build of scalable enterprise technology capabilities :

  • Technology Portfolio Office and Delivery Management
  • Business analysis pre-IPO
  • Jira SME capability
  • Engineering capability and capacity

“Qurated enabled us to accelerate delivery of our technology roadmap, and meet the challenging business demands during a period of rapid growth for the Bank.”
