Xalles has a core competence in designing and implementing financial supply chain (FSC) systems across commercial and government organizations. Our key objective is to help our clients reduce costs, improve visibility and increase accountability for each participating department within the FSC process lifecycle. We design and develop end-to-end solutions that simplify complex trading and payment transactions by automating the processes, whenever possible, and by resolving disputes in advance based on best practices implemented through business rules.

the need

Many financial institutions are looking for ways to improve their B2B payment systems and offerings. As the financial services industry continues to embrace new technology and competition becomes increasing fierce, companies continue to seek new ways to leverage their existing infrastructure to expand their revenue streams. Banks and other payment service companies need to create new business models that are value added to their customers, feasible, scalable and sustainable.

Currently, businesses and government organizations trade with each other without having the ability to effectively manage their financial supply chains. While there has been much progress in the last 40 years to reduce transit times, inventory levels and improve visibility in the physical supply chain, there has been very little innovation in terms of management tools for the financial supply chain (FSC). The FSC market opportunities available today to companies that can redesign how people, process and technology are integrated into a seamless system are tremendous.

how we are different

A) We do not favor any particular software or hardware brands so we stay completely impartial when we look at a client’s problem. We are very objective and able to act in our client’s best interest whether that means helping them enhance existing systems, or create a solution based on one of our own innovative designs.

B) All of our consultants have at least 10 years of relevant consulting experience in this industry.

C) Our solution development methodology is based on integrative thinking. We employ rapid prototyping, creative innovation techniques and combine this with the core elements of proven SDLC methodologies.

D)We try to leverage our client’s existing infrastructure and inherent strengths, whenever possible, as part of our solution development to save costs, gain speed to market and minimize ongoing support costs.

E) We understand how to integrate process, technology and people (user psychology) to ensure that the solutions are successfully designed, built and implemented according to current requirements and future needs.

F) We base our success on our client’s profitability. We will develop the go to market strategy with our clients and assist in the promotion of their new financial supply chain services to their customers.
