Fiserv, Inc., the provider of financial services technology solutions, has announced that Texas-based Frost, with assets of USD14 billion, has significantly reduced operational costs and improved back-office efficiency through the use of Case Management and Resolution Solutions from Fiserv, among other things.
Case Management and Resolution Solutions from Fiserv include Adjustments/Express, working in conjunction with All Transactions File (ATF) and Web Express. Together, these products are designed to provide increased productivity, improved risk management and the ability to provide customer service. Frost has used Adjustments/Express and ATF for two years and plans to begin using Web Express by year’s end.
“We have seen excellent results using the Case Management and Resolution solutions from Fiserv,” says Vicki Ball, senior vice president, Central Adjustments and Micrographics, Frost. “We have almost completely eliminated losses because we are now proactive and stay on top of cases to close them quickly. We have virtually done away with overtime and paper expenses, including print supplies. Researching a case used to take 25 minutes and can now be accomplished in two minutes. Because of those efficiencies, we were able to eliminate manual processes resulting in significant cost savings for Frost.”
Frost has been so pleased with the results of the Case Management and Resolution Solutions that it has expanded its use to other departments, including returns, reclamation and collections.
The Case Management and Resolution Solutions are an example of Fiserv’s core competency in payments, and offer features that help Frost increase productivity and speed resolution. Those features include automated research; rules-based decisioning; point-of-first-contact case input to minimize or eliminate manual data entry; electronic support document storage; case- and customer-specific correspondence creation; passive and active special instructions; and an interface with FedWeb and Viewpointe for upload and download of case data.
Frost can also help manage risk through application tools such as work prioritization controls, management monitoring through online reports and graphs; and operator and case monitoring through a robust case inquiry feature. Customer service has been enhanced through point-of-first contact case entry as well as inquiry; customer-specific special instructions; and management tools to enable achievement of service level agreements.
