The challenge

The trading floor of an investment bank was experiencing issues between teams when it came to desktop support, GSP, e-Trading, quants, and developers.

There was a gap in expertise, leading to inefficiencies in solving problems, which resulted in unresolved issues and tensions within the team.

Actions and outcomes

emagine built a small team of Rapid Application Support practitioners who took full responsibility for resolving issues in their entirety. This team had in-depth knowledge of the business, applications, and individuals, which gave them the ability to problem-solve and offer full support.

  • Time saving: This freed up departments to perform targeted tasks only, reducing waste of resources and allowing developers to focus on developing and not on providing support.
  • Improved efficiency: Centralised solution knowledge allowed processes to be put in place that increased productivity and efficiency.
