The Story
Capitol Credit Union was on a mission to reduce costs, migrate transactions to more efficient channels, and enhance the client experience. Located in a city where the community is quickly shifting toward younger generations and becoming a worldwide hub for technological innovation, the need to change was imminent. Their first step in achieving their goals included adopting a more retail-friendly Universal Associate Model in their Austin, TX branch, and technology was a massive part of Capitol Credit Union’s strategy to driving this convenience for its members.

The Results
CFM, partnered with DBSI, worked with the Capitol CU project team to develop a three-step process to achieve its goals of transforming the old branch into a new retail-friendly branch environment that offers an elite member experience.
Step 1: Installing the self-service machine, NEXT, a core-integrated self-service, assisted-service, and full-service kiosk capable of completing almost every teller transaction (and comes complete with tablets). This allowed associates to focus on selling, not transacting. And now, what used to take 2 FTEs takes .5 of one.
Step 2: Remodeling the branch by removing 3 teller lines and installing a Service Spot, a flexible work station. This modern feature not only established a more retail-friendly environment, but it also opened up the floorplan for an easy transition to the Universal Associate Model.
Step 3: With a new self-service machine and branch design, the final step was enabling the staff with both the ultimate tool and the knowledge to become Universal Associates. This included:
Nomadix: A tablet-based teller interface that is both core-integrated and capable of pairing with the NEXT kiosk to offer full-service.
Delivery Defined: A comprehensive staff training program that prepared staff to operate at max efficiency as universal associates with their new technologies and design features.
