Our client is a leading independent financial services partner to UK businesses, with a presence across Europe and Singapore. They offer a variety of finance products, including Invoice Finance and Asset Finance.
The challenge:
Our client has a highly bespoke in-house system, built on Microsoft technologies and supported internally. To create a more cost-effective and flexible delivery capability, they needed to appoint a partner with a strong track record of supporting and evolving bespoke applications, working alongside their internal team.
Our approach:
Having worked alongside members of the senior management team in the past, Elemental Concept has become the trusted partner. Not only did we provide complete support services for their platform, but we also provided additional consulting services, including a review of their legacy data.
- Reviewed the client’s proposed technical strategy around how they could best exploit their unique market position created by their wealth of legacy data.
- Challenged existing assumptions and helped hone their suite of tools choices (Databricks as the key cornerstone and using the Microsoft Azure platform).
- Ratified the approach to building out the solutions, ensuring that they met the company’s business needs
- Ratified the tool selection, ensuring that the toolsets chosen would be the right choice for the foreseeable future based on their market positioning and perceived take-up by the wider community.
The results:
The engagement strengthened the client’s technology foundation and strategic direction, ensuring their platform and tools are well-positioned for future growth. By combining technical support with strategic insight, Elemental Concept helped the client unlock greater flexibility, scalability, and long-term value from their bespoke systems.
