Program Manager and Digital Transformation Lead

As a Digital Transformation Lead

User portal & Mobile Authentication – Ideated and implemented a one-stop user persona with advanced authentication for member contact services. This portal analyses and provides the answers of the 5 top most queries, account details, balance, address validation etc. after successful authentication. It includes the below:

1. One stop portal - this user interface is designed in angular which consolidates user information from various different systems via APIs and present it to the user

2. ETL - User information such as address information and other user details from customer portal, transaction details from transform, card details from nucleus etc. is extracted and loaded into single database via informatica jobs

3. Integration - real time check on the admin portal for mobile activity if the user validates by logging in while on the call. This provides an alternate authentication solution other than security questions

Money-in and Money-out restrictions for Non-UK Customers - The problem statement of the customer is to identify & analyze all touch-points for money-in and money-out for pensions and investment business, define rules as per new regulatory guidelines and implement a mix of custom solutions (including process simplification, re-reengineering). It involves the below:

1. Process Simplification - Analyzed and redesigned SOPs to include a check on the addresses for any customer for manual or step-up transactions

2. Digital solutions - This includes enhancements in existing java code to restrict any non-UK address for existing and new customers. Also, developed a functionality to all addition of non-UK address by operations team only (role based access)

3. Automation - Automated triggering of various initiation & notification workflows such as Fraud check, step-up, address validation etc.

4. RPA - Implemented RPA in KYC process as it needs interaction among multiple un-connected systems

Indirect Sourcing - The problem statement is to manage the existing processes of quotations & order of C parts for aviation and transform & improve the overall process. It includes the below:

The flexi team can be ramped up & down with a 14 days lead time whenever required. The partner team to provide all trainings (in boundaries of NDA) and ensure resources are unskilled

2. Single source for quotations - The aviation contracts are long running contracts and there are lots of quotations received previously in pdfs. The requirement here is to digitize all previous quotations. This was achieved by an OCR solution to read and store pdf information in database tables. A UI was built on top of it for the users to search on quotations by suppliers, part number etc.

3. Proactive updates on Shipments - An automated solution is required to provide the shipment status every 8 hours to inventory teams. An unattended RPA solution (pega) was used to pick shipment number, find their status on FedEx and UPS websites and then capture the status in excel every 8 hours. This excel was then mailed to the users
