2. Vision Statement

To seamlessly transition all retail banking accounts from Test Republic Bank’s legacy Cobol-based mainframe system to Temenos' Transact cloud-based core banking solution, ensuring zero disruption to client access and operations, while integrating with third-party systems and enhancing user experience through a blue-themed interface by New Year's Eve, 2025.

3. Business Objectives

  • Transition 100,000 retail checking and savings accounts to Temenos' Transact
  • Ensure zero disruption in client access to accounts during the transition
  • Integrate Transact with Paymentus for payments and LendingPad for loan origination
  • Automate testing with Selenium to ensure a smooth transition
  • Purge and close accounts with $100 or less, issuing refunds via check
  • Implement a blue-themed user interface for all client-facing portals

4. Project Scope

In Scope:

  • Migration of all account information from the legacy system to Transact
  • Integration with Paymentus and LendingPad
  • Development of Selenium scripts for automated testing
  • Implementation of a blue-themed UX in Transact

Out of Scope:

  • Migration of accounts outside of retail checking and savings, CDs, Money Market accounts, mortgages, credit cards, car loans, and other personal loans
  • Development of new banking products within Transact
  • UX designs using colors other than blue
  • Changes to third-party software functionalities beyond integration
