Project 1: PSIT is a group that supports the implementation of the helix
program. As a part of PSIT I am involving in testing the implementation of
the helix statements and letters. The objective of this testing is to
verify and validate the new functionality incorporated for helix.
Project 2: ProphIT is a contact center workflow based system, which
facilitates agents of contact center in accessing the credit card account
details stored in TS2 system. The various users of this system could be
customer service, collections, and fraud agents. Depending on access
privileges agents of contact centers can access various account information
and workflows. ProphIT has a web browser and is also integrated with VRU
and OAS net banking platform, in the front end. ProphIT is fully integrated
with TS2 in the back end and also with other OTS and decision-making
systems through various interfaces.
Project 3: In the current environment, Deposit Statements (account
statements for Checking, Interest Checking, Rewards Checking, Money Market
Demand Deposit, Savings, Certificate of Deposit, and Individual Retirement
Accounts) are composed on the Fidelity Host System and sent to an external
vendor, FDR (First Data Resources), for rendering. There are different
statement formats for accounts based on region, i.e., statements in the
South look different than statements in the North.
With the onset of the Chevy Chase Bank (CCB) Integration, the Consumer
business decided to create a Nationally Branded Deposit Statement that
would meet the needs of all Capital One branch accounts, North, South and
eventually the integrated CCB. Creating a new, dynamic statement template
on the Fidelity Host seemed to be inordinately difficult, so the decision
was made to "rehost" the Deposit Statement composition and archiving
process to the Capital One platform (currently used for Credit Card and
National Direct Bank statements). Commercial and Small Business statements
were subsequently added to the scope, further to take advantage of the
National Branding initiative.
