Online Research | How To Select & Implement A Universal System
02 October 2012
A core banking system replacement project is similar to an orchestra, in that all workstreams must work together and deliver to specification for the project to be successful. If training is ineffective, staff can experience problems post go-live, even when the new banking system is implemented well. This can often result in poor customer service, reconciliation issues, growing suspense account balances, and adverse publicity. Training needs to be focused not only on the new system but also on the new processes, otherwise it misses half the picture and can cause long-term problems. There are then questions about when to train which staff and the interaction between the training workstream and the rest of the project.

Testing is another area that can be underestimated and that, fundamentally, banks often get wrong. It has many dimensions to it, spanning both processes and technology. And as with quite a number of other project workstreams, testing is hindered by the fact that much of the final system only falls into place late on. There is limited benefit to testing components ahead of the actual environment coming together. When things go wrong with testing, they often do so in a highly public way. The problems at RBS and Ulster Bank in June 2012 illustrate the scale of problems that banks can face when an upgrade to a banking system goes awry and a critical element of the system fails in production.
