🎯
“Across our capability map—channels, lending, core banking, data, platform, and security—we defined measurable KPIs for each capability.For example, onboarding moved from 5 days to <30 minutes, API adoption from 15% to 90%, cloud adoption from 20% to 80%, STP from 30% to 85%, MTTR from 4 hours to below 20 minutes.
We also tracked delivery KPIs like weekly releases, 90% automated deployments, and governance KPIs like 95% architecture review compliance and 40% technical debt reduction.
This capability-to-KPI traceability is how we drove modernization outcomes, ensured accountability, and communicated success to CXOs.”
