article banner

Overview.

A major UK mortgage lender faced a complex ecosystem with multiple loan books and systems. Coforge helped them consolidate processes and build a user-friendly platform, reducing approval times and improving the broker experience. 

Challenges.

  • 4 separate mortgage books with individual processes and systems.
  • Complex and time-consuming process for brokers with multiple logins and delays.
  • Mortgage approvals taking up to 21 days and disbursals taking months.
  • High call center volume due to lack of self-service options.

Solution.

  • Leveraged cloud architecture to abstract data and information systems.
  • Migrated data from VSAM to Oracle and implemented micro-services architecture.
  • Established an API development factory to reduce lending platforms.
  • Built a Salesforce-based customer application processing system.
  • Developed a new broker-facing web/mobile interface with single sign-on and self-service options.
  • Implemented a dynamic logic framework for customer service processing.
  • Created a product directory allowing dynamic rates and charges during launch.
