The pitch happened before I arrived. Little to no follow up from the previous inhabitant. This just showed.
"Thank you for reaching out again. After internal discussions, we came to a conclusion that we would prioritize pursuing efficiency of our procedure, instead of pursuing xxxx cutting edge technology for credit analysis.
From this aspect, weโre discussing with a vendor who is more like conventional credit analysis service provider and has established system and companiesโ financial information.
Thank you for your support. The discussions with your team gave us an opportunity to know our real internal demand and brush up IT strategy.
I hope you and your team are going well."
I asked CEO if they'd object to my chiming in. Go for it, he said.
Please forgive the unsolicited appearance from me in this thread, but when I see an opportunity to solve in a cost-efficient way, I simply canโt help but pose the solution. I was not a part of your previous discussions with the xxxxx team, so excuse me if Iโm missing nuance, but here it is. Youโve articulated two issues, one process related and one that is conventional in nature. Letโs call them 2 birds.
xMyCompanyxx represents one stone.
There is no efficiency in multiple vendors addressing tandem operational issues with different technologies. There is even less efficiency in addressing a conventional process with a legacy system, then having to reinvest to transform digitally in a sustainable way. Would you kindly allow us to reopen dialogue and to propose a solution that addresses both concerns simultaneously? The efficiencies from where we sit are substantial.
