zeb helps building societies set up various digital interfaces:
- portals that serve as a central point of contact for customers
- platforms that mediate supply and demand as online marketplaces
- ecosystems through which different providers can network to offer differentiated services to as many customers as possible
To set up and operate interfaces of this kind, zeb uses a proven methodology that analyses the situation of a building society and makes suggestions for further action. In it, zeb investigates fundamental questions in order to develop the right strategy for the respective customer: Which requirements should be met? How should suitable portals or platforms be designed? Furthermore, is developing an ecosystem strategically sensible and if so, what structure should it have? What are the costs and revenue models that come into play when entering this market?
The zeb model helps to answer these questions by presenting different options. For example, a building society can be one provider among many in an ecosystem, but it can also orchestrate its own offers or those of third parties as a value-added service provider.
As soon as a building society decides on a target model, zeb helps to develop a business model (system strategy, market placement and target customers), an operating model (development, commissioning, further development, partner management, data exploitation) and a financing model (business case, controlling).
