Challenge

Commercial lending powered by effective software

To stay ahead in the competitive lending environment, lenders must remain up-to-date with the
latest
technologies and enhance their product offerings. The company found it complicated to adapt to
new requirements with its legacy core system, and decided to upgrade to a more flexible
front-to-
back lending platform.
Approach

Introduction of multi-faceted updates

The project was divided into two stages: transformation of the current
platform to ensure that mission critical operations run smoothly, and extension of functionality
with new global components. The HES platform empowers the company to streamline its lending
workflows and activities by integrating a variety of third-party services and automating a
number of manual administrative tasks.

Since deploying the HES Lending Platform, the company has achieved greater efficiency and
automated mission-critical processes. With a robust, scalable lending platform, the Canadian
lender reduced application processing from 24 to 4 hours, and quickly introduced a new product —
merchant cash advance.
