Scaling up ISA processing

A system for ISA processing specified and built within 8 weeks in low-code

The challenge

A global financial crisis created an upsurge in the demand for new ISAs, as people moved savings in and out of various banks. Unfortunately this led to poor service across the sector, as processing teams were unable to cope with increased work volumes. This led to a consequent surge in chaser phone calls and customer complaints. This accumulated poor customer experience resulted in bad PR, compensation claims and even fines and sanctions.

This backdrop led Nationwide to overhaul their ISA processing function. They needed a workflow solution to streamline the application process and dramatically improve customer experience. And they needed it fast. Having deployed some highly successful systems using Liberty Create, they turned to our low-code platform to meet this challenge.

“Liberty Create has made a telling contribution to Nationwide achieving its best ever ISA peak performance. The society processed record levels of ISA business.”
