Challenges

Due to Covid-19 Idea Bank needed to accelerate digital transformation. The bank needed to transform from traditional to digital space quickly. Idea Bank had several internet and mobile banking initiatives in the project pipeline. The current IT has hands full of work and we had an urgent need to extend our IT team with an external company. Other challenges were, that the bank did not know, for how long we needed a new consultant and to create new open positions. Additionally, the management did not allow the hiring of new staff during a difficult time of the pandemic.

Solution

The Idea Bank started working with New Digital Street. Idea Bank did not have to create new positions, NDS delivered experienced consultants in the field of Business Analysis and Project Management. The consultants have started working within one month and had vast banking experience and understood how organizations like Idea Bank work. The Idea Bank could easily scale resources.

Result

The bank has accelerated with new mobile and internet projects and met expectations of management to not hire new staff.

At PGS Software (Xebia now) we are looking for IT partners with certain skills. Our requirements are tailored candidates to the tech stack, engagement, and number of CVs for each position, and smooth communication. We speak with NDS in the same language.

We have picked New Digital Street because of our huge experience in the finance sector. They quickly set up a team of 15 engineers for our new fintech client from Saudi Arabia. The end client achieved quick scaling possibilities and could move on with the project.

We were looking for a solution that adjusts the product offer for a specific customer based on purchasing intentions, and NDS provided us with a team of engineers who built such a mechanism.
