3. Banks have often built the
majority of their technology solutions in-house in the past, this has changed
gradually in recent years for a number of reasons, including costs, speed to market,
and access to innovation and expertize. XDFL Bank's outsourcing-focused approach
has been led by its desire to concentrate resources on meeting clients’ banking
needs. Part of a larger financial services group, the bank has a small but
growing share of domestic household lending and retail deposit markets, with
growth driven by marketing to the parent group’s clients and by generating new
business. The bank serves customers via both digital channels and a branch
network, with a particular focus on high levels of automation and investment in
self-service delivery channels. “Any bank’s systems must provide high
availability, high levels of security and have the ability to cope with periods
of high transaction volumes. Indeed, the ability of a bank’s underlying
operating infrastructure to deliver on these expectations is critical to maintaining
client trust," said the bank’s head of IT. From an IT perspective, the
bank’s strategy has been to outsource system support and development as much as
possible: it brought in all of its 80—100 systems - from core banking to
reporting to applications supporting its digital channels. This means the primary
responsibility of its 30 in-house IT staff is to govern and manage
relationships with third-party vendors. The key reason for choosing an
outsourcing strategy was to help the bank to focus on meeting customers’
banking needs; IT supports this aim, but it is not a core competence integral
to the bank’s ability to serve customers. “Rather than competing to recruit
today’s developer skills, the bank decided it was better served hiring staff
that can combine a number of skills, including developer experience, project
and vendor management to ensure that we work effectively with third-parties to deliver
superior banking services to clients,” explained the bank’s head of IT. The
bank’s approach to service development is customer-driven and agile, which
means it tends to make a lot of incremental changes on an ongoing basis, rather
than launching big projects or releases. Despite only hiring around 30 in-house
IT employees, the total number of people working on the bank’s IT
infrastructure across all vendors runs into the hundreds.
a. Does XDFL Bank's approach
on outsourcing give itself an advantage in terms of managing risk better?
Justify. (5 Marks)
b. What would be the factors
on which the success of the outsourcing endevour of the bank be most dependent
on? Explain in brief. (5 Marks)

2. Casual Male Retail Group:
On – Demand Business Intelligence
Ask Dennis Hernreich, COO and
CFO of Casual Male Retail Group, what his life was like before he switched to
an on-demand business intelligence reporting application, and he remembers the
frustration all too easily. Casual Male Retail Group, a specialty retailer of
big and tall men's apparel with $464 million in annual sales, was using a
legacy on-premise reporting application for its catalog operations. (The
company also has 520 retail outlets and electronic commerce operations.) Yet
the reporting features built into the system were "extremely poor,"
as Hernreich describes them: "Visibility to the business? Terrible.
Real-time information? Doesn't exist. How are we doing with certain styles by
size? Don't know." "It was unacceptable," Hernreich says. In
addition, you could only view those "canned" BI reports (which lacked
features such as exception reporting) could happen only with making a trip to
the printer for a stack of printouts. "It was hundreds of pages," he recalls.
"That's just not how you operate today." It's not like Casual Male
didn't have all this information; it just didn't have an intuitive and easy way
to get at its catalog business's sales and inventory trends in real-time. But that
changed in 2004, when Casual Male began using an on-demand BI tool from vendor
Oco (www.oco-inc.com), which takes all of Casual Male's data, builds and maintains
a data warehouse for it offsite, and creates "responsive, real-time
reporting dashboards that give us and our business users information at their
fingertips," Hernreich says. Today, Hernreich and Casual Male's
merchandise planners and buyers have access to easy-to-consume dashboards full
of catalog data: "What styles are selling today. How much inventory are we
selling today? Where are we short? Where do we need to order?
How are we selling by size?
What are we out of stock in?" he says. "All of these basic questions,
in terms of running the business--that's what we're learning every day from these
reports." Best of all, those annoying trips to the printer have ended. (Source
