So, even though one customer has more than oneproduct from bank, bank is maintaining customer's detail in more than oneplace and treating them as different customers instead of one. With projectsunrise bank want to maintain customer's detail at only one place insteadof maintaining them in several other places and want to treat customer asone customer for more than one product.Also bank wants to implement BASEL III rules for credit rating.Environment:- Mainframe (COBOL, CICS, JCL, DB2)Project Duration:- 2 Years.Team size:- 50 (in Offshore development Team)IMS2DB2Porject Description:- Replacing IMS database with DB2 database.Environment:- Mainframe (COBOL, IMS, DB2, JCL, CICS)Project Duration:- 12 MonthsTeam size:- 25 (Including HO Team members)DOC1 to Dialogue Execution - CorrespondancesPorject Description:- DOC1 is the document composition tool PFG currentlyuse to produce quarterly, annual, periodic and SIMPLE variable annuitystatements (FRDM, FRDM2, FVA, and VA2004).Risks associated with continuing to use DOC1. . Reduced enterprise support for DOC1 as business units stop using it. . Lack of new features and enhancements for the current version of DOC1 that PFG use. . Potential endo fo life of the current version of DOC1 that PFG use.Due to the risks noted above, it is in Annuities best interest to migrateoutputs off of DOC1 to a different tool.Dialogue is the enterprise's "invest" tool for document composition. Itoffers many benefits. . Easier maintenance . Reduced development time . Ability for development to be completed by Annuity IT developers (and reducing dependency on Life IT for support).Since Dialogue is the preferred document composition tool, Annuities needto incrementally move outputs to it. The variable annuity statements areannuities highest volume output and also most active, requiring changeswith most retail annity product projects. To mitigate the risks notedabove, it is necessary to move this output from DOC1 t Dialoge. As a partof migration taking advantage of the opportunity to make some minor chgnesto the statement content wording, format, and selection order.Environment:- Mainframe (COBOL, CICS, JCL, IMS, DB2)Other technologies and tools:- Admin Launcher (SmallTalk), GEP (GenericExtract Process).Project Duration:- 6 MonthsTeam size:- 12 (Including HO Team members)Rate Entry AutomationPorject Description:- End to end process designed and developed for rateentry for each annuity products.
