Pacific regional bank · ISO 20022 address remediation

Automated data cleansing and validation for 50,000+ records

Problem

Payment interfaces and core platforms across two countries held unstructured customer address data that would not meet mandatory SWIFT ISO 20022 structured and hybrid address standards.

What I did

Ran workshops with business, technology and vendor teams to agree requirements and remediation options. Profiled and mapped more than 50,000 remitter and payee records, defined the business rules, and built Python (Pandas) scripts to automate cleansing, address validation and output generation.

Artefacts

  • Business requirements documents
  • Structured address recommendation paper and technical memo
  • Case management options paper
  • Data mapping and business rules

Outcome

Remediated data published in a compliant structure, with a repeatable automated process that improved consistency and throughput for regulatory reporting.

Applies to: any large data migration or clean-up, such as logistics, insurance, retail or government records.

Tier-1 Australian bank · Home lending platform change

Approval turnaround cut from 12 to 5 days

Problem

Slow loan and change approvals and a fragmented customer experience across legacy and cloud-based lending and finance platforms during a system upgrade.

What I did

Mapped current-state and target-state processes in BPMN and turned the findings into a prioritised backlog with user stories and acceptance criteria. Specified REST API requests and responses and data mappings, used SQL for validation and integration testing, and stepped in as Iteration Manager when needed.

Artefacts

  • BPMN current and target process maps
  • User stories, acceptance criteria and impact assessments
  • REST API specifications and data mapping
  • Backlog and process documentation for the wider BA team

Outcome

Approval turnaround cut from 12 to 5 days, and a 15% uplift in customer onboarding satisfaction.

Applies to: any approval-heavy process spread across legacy and cloud platforms, such as claims, onboarding, procurement or permits.

Pacific regional bank

Core banking and cross-border payments modernisation

Problem

Lending, credit, trade finance and payments ran on ageing processes and needed a new core banking platform and a compliant cross-border payment interface.

What I did

Led as-is and to-be BPMN workshops, assessed packaged-solution fit against business requirements, and owned the product vision and roadmap for the payment interface. Maintained the backlog across workstreams, validated migrated data through profiling, supported user acceptance testing, and prepared user guides and rollout training.

Artefacts

  • Requirements traceability matrix and RAID log
  • Product roadmap and prioritised backlog
  • Gap analysis and options recommendations
  • Test design documents, user guides and training material

Outcome

Faster transaction processing, stronger regulatory compliance and a live cross-border payment solution aligned with SWIFT ISO 20022.

Applies to: replacing an ageing core platform and the processes, data and training around it, in any sector.
