Alpha Bank Cyprus: Digitalization of Business Processes with uniBPM
Business Process Re-engineering started off as a technique to help organizations rethink their ways of operation and improve customer service, reduce operational costs, and become world-class competitors.
Alpha Bank Cyprus Ltd belongs to Alpha Bank Group, one of the leading groups of the financial sector in Greece. The Bank has been operating in Cyprus since 1998 and offers a wide range of financial products and services through an up-to-date branch network, specialized Units and customer service points in all Cyprus cities. Alpha Bank Cyprus Ltd, provides high-quality products and services in the sectors of retail banking, small and large business and international activities.
The main mission of the bank is to offer products and services that respond to the current and constantly evolving demands of their clients. In order to fulfill these needs, the bank was required to rethinking its processes. New, flexible and agile processes need to be put in place, substituting rigid procedures that were designed for an earlier, different and more stable economic world.
Alpha Bank Cyprus Ltd, took the strategic decision to refactor all business processes carried out within the bank, selecting uniBPM Business Process Management to be the platform of choice. uniBPM is used to refactor, design, execute and monitor all processes carried out with the organization.
