Financial Sector Technology Awards 2010 shortlist for eg clients

Jan. 29, 2010 - PRLog -- The FST Awards, now in their tenth year, aim to recognise excellence and innovation in the field of information technology within the UK and EMEA financial sector.  The awards are designed to emphasise the importance of IT as a key driver in business and to acknowledge and reward IT specialists working within the sector.

Nationwide Regional Brands, shortlisted in the ‘Best Use of IT in Retail Banking’ category, were nominated by eg following the deployment of the eg operational intelligence® software suite to develop a consistent, transparent approach to back office capacity and capability planning, managing volume throughput and the performance management of staff to evolve them to be the best they can be across the three brands.

The FST Awards have recognised Legal & General Protection in the ‘Best Use if IT in Insurance category’ for a programme in 2009 which extended the use of eg’s software and methodology within the Strategic Partner business to provide consistent capacity planning and resource sharing, both across two sites and across the strategic accounts. This has created significant capacity that has been shared with other areas of the business to reduce overall operating costs and improve customer service performance.

The winners of the FST Awards will be announced at a gala dinner on the 25 March at the Lancaster London Hotel.  

Elizabeth Gooch, Chief Executive Officer of eg solutions plc said: “Once again the benefits of implementing an operational management strategy and operational intelligence tools are proven following the recognition by the FST Awards of both clients’ projects.  The teams at Nationwide Regional Brands and Legal & General Protection worked with determination to achieve success on these implementations and would both be worthy winners.”
