DTB was building a software development centre to support its Banking-as-a-Service services, and wanted less dependence on third parties for delivery.
- Slow delivery caused by third-party dependency.
- Little visibility on progress because the bank did not own milestones.
- Slow innovation.
- Weak internal knowledge retention.
FinSense supplied up to 33 developers across multiple stacks, plus a scrum master, a DevSecOps engineer and a middleware L3 support engineer, forming a team DTB directs and whose milestones it owns.
- 01Faster product rollouts, with the bank in control of resources and timelines.
- 02Internal knowledge retention and capacity building.
- 03Lower dependency on external vendors and reduced miscellaneous delivery costs.
DTB has rolled out key products for fintechs and SMEs through this team, opening revenue avenues beyond deposits.
“FinSense has exhibited professionalism, dedication, and flexibility in the supply of developers to meet our staffing needs with precision.
