Process optimization for cooperative banks 

The demands placed on cooperative banks are increasing noticeably: digitalization, rising customer expectations, regulatory requirements and a shortage of skilled workers are fundamentally changing the framework they operate in. At the same time, ever more historically grown processes are reaching their limits.

zeb supports cooperative banks in making their processes fit for the future and organizationally embedding optimization measures in the long term. Our clearly structured approach combines strategy, processes, systems and organization into an efficient operating model – practical, implementation-oriented and consistently aligned with the requirements of cooperative banking.

Operational excellence (OPEX): the lever for customer-oriented, efficient and secure processes

Operational excellence stands for the holistic optimization of the value chain – from customer-relevant core processes to internal workflows. The focus is on lean processes, clear responsibilities, high quality and regulatory security.

Operational excellence is not a one-off project, but the foundation of a scalable operating model – especially in the transition to Atruvia’s BankingWorkspace (BWS) and Omnichannel Platform (Omnikanalplattform, OKP) as well as AI-supported working methods. Processes are consistently aligned with customer needs, systematically standardized and digitally supported, using Atruvia standards as a scaling lever.

The result is not a “one-size-fits-all” solution, but a custom path perfectly tailored to the respective bank’s structure, size and IT landscape.

Efficient processes. Future-proof. Measurable. People-centered. 

We support cooperative banks on their path toward modern, resilient processes – with a clear target image, a deep understanding of the customer business and the IT landscape as well as a practical implementation approach based on the  new operating model (nBM)  

Through an integrated approach that combines standardization, automation and targeted change management, we create long-lasting and effective structures for the cooperative bank of the future.

“Top institutions are meeting the current challenges with a combination of standardization, digitalization and automation – the medium-term goal must be to focus the available workforce on value-adding and qualified activities.“

Why zeb?

Process optimization is not just about individual efficiency measures but about the consistent further development of the process world along the new operating model. An integrated approach that combines strategy, processes, systems and organization is crucial in this context.

When it comes to optimizing processes, zeb pursues a deliberately implementation-oriented and holistic approach:
 End-to-end perspective instead of individual solutions – comprehensive optimization of customer processes and internal processes along the nBM
 In-depth knowledge of processes, structures and systems in cooperative banking
 Practical solutions instead of concept papers – with a clear focus on quickly leveraging efficiency potential
 “Real” implementation reaching right down into the agree21 engine room – from target development to administration in agree21 to long-term organizational integration

Our ambition goes beyond selective optimization: We create the basis for a scalable, efficient and future-proof operating model – that noticeably relieves your customers, sales units and organization.
