Whitepaper details interconnected consulting disciplines for credit unions to align operations with long-term strategy
FARMINGTON HILLS, Mich.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–MDT, a CUSO that helps credit unions navigate complex financial technology ecosystems, today released a new whitepaper, Your Core is Just the Beginning: Unlocking the Next Level of Efficiency, designed to help credit unions uncover and correct inefficiencies, streamline operations and maximize returns on their technology investments.
The whitepaper introduces a cross-functional consulting model built around three interconnected disciplines โ Efficiency Consulting, Project Management Consulting and Core Consulting. Together, these areas form a cohesive framework aimed at bringing greater consistency, clarity and impact to the consulting experience for credit unions.
โIn todayโs ultra-competitive, fast-moving financial landscape, efficiency isnโt just a cost-cutting measure โ itโs a strategic imperative,โ said Tracie Loudermilk, VP of Project & Consulting Solutions at MDT. โAt MDT, we are helping credit unions take a more holistic, long-term approach to efficiency. Our integrated consulting model, outlined in our latest whitepaper, is designed to meet credit unions where they are and guide them toward sustainable, scalable operational improvements.โ
According to Jack Henry’s seventh annual Strategy Benchmark, efficiency has emerged as the top strategic priority for credit union CEOs, with 41% naming it as a primary focus for the year ahead. As credit unions increasingly look to their core systems not just as infrastructure but as strategic enablers, MDTโs consulting model helps organizations unlock greater value and position themselves for future growth.
The whitepaper examines:
- The common challenges credit unions face today: These arenโt just internal hurdles โ these issues directly impact the member experience.
- High-impact areas where credit unions can achieve early wins: In many cases, the most impactful improvements donโt come from new technology but from using existing tools more effectively.
- The power of integrated consulting: Efficiency Consulting, Project Management Consulting and Core Consulting โ each of these offerings can stand alone, but their real strength is in combination.
- Foundational frameworks are more than project checklists or reporting tools: How credit unions can strategically unify their organizations.
โCredit unions are navigating a number of complex challenges, from deploying new technology to driving cultural change, all while trying to do more with less,โ said Dylan Misajlovski, Consultant at MDT. โAt MDT, we provide the structure, clarity and momentum credit unions need to move forward with confidence. Whether itโs improving workflows, establishing a PMO or aligning teams around long-term goals, we meet institutions where they are and help them build for whatโs next. In a landscape where standing still means falling behind, efficiency isnโt just important โ itโs a strategic imperative.โ
