From 14-day approvals to 3-day disbursements.
Loan origination at this bank had been a 14-day cycle of email hand-offs between origination, KYC, credit, legal and disbursement. Each function was efficient internally; the gaps between them were where the time hid. Customers who applied on Monday were lucky to be funded the following week.
The first IJRA@ wave modelled the whole flow as one BPMN process: parallel KYC-and-scoring branches, an automated risk-rules gateway, a human review user-task only for exceptions, and a single signed-document trigger to disbursement. Service tasks integrated the existing core banking system, the credit bureau, the document management system and the notification service. No new systems were bought.
