📖 The SaaS Chronicles, Chapter 2: Definition Delta 📖 In this branching-path story, you are the PM. Every choice you make impacts the story's outcome. You've made it through Vendor Valley and your first big decision is behind you. (reminder: https://hubs.li/Q03KKRRT0) ⛰️ Now, your journey continues into the treacherous waters of Definition Delta 🌊 It’s getting a bit cloudy out here and you’re starting to distrust your GPS 🌫️📍Haven’t you already been past that sediment deposit?🤔 This is where you make or break the project. Navigating the Delta means appointing the right people to the right roles, and running the project definition effectively. 🧠 Real-world insights 🧠 We developed The SaaS Chronicles because we believe a successful implementation is more than just a software switch. It’s a complete business transformation, and Alfa’s role is to set you up to succeed. We help our customers define how their operational and technology landscapes will work today and tomorrow, and work with them to strategise on how best to roll out. 🔍 Some of what we’ve seen recently, IRL… 🌍 Working with a large European multicountry lessor, we’ve been navigating the complexities of multiple regions, and finding a phasing path that maximises for early wins as well as incremental build. 🏦 With a mid-sized US bank, we’ve challenged as-is processes in the to-be world, so together we can focus on true business transformation - rather than just replicating old ways with new technology. 🚘 For a household name in cars, we’ve focused on to-be architecture, drawing new lines of system responsibility, and simplifying the to-be, API-driven landscape. Some say the definition is the most strategic part of a project. For this key phase, we bring our expertise to help clients realise their vision - as well as challenging them on it. (And not everybody has a big consulting partner to do that for them.) 📖 Pick up your copy of The SaaS Chronicles at one of the big events this season. The digital version is also coming soon. Don’t let outdated systems write your future.

In this Equipment Leasing and Finance Association article - The Winners Circle: Powering Growth Through Sustainability - industry leaders, including Alfa’s Product Director Emily Hammond, show that, despite shifting regulations in some regions, finance companies are steadfastly embedding circularity and sustainable practices into their operations. Emily highlights that equipment finance providers need sustainability built into their systems - one reason it became a core pillar of Alfa Systems 6 - as they increasingly expect tools that enable sustainability reporting, lifecycle management and circular models like “everything as a service” (XaaS). Read this, along with other expert insights in the full article. https://hubs.li/Q03Lk_gz0 #Sustainability #EquipmentFinance #Innovation #Technology #ELFA

🆕 Syndication capabilities for asset and loan finance in Alfa Systems 🆕 We’re proud to announce the release of the new Alfa Systems’ Syndication module, which enables complete syndication management for lenders - from simple splits to complex multijurisdictional syndicates - while maintaining total flexibility and control. Like securitisation and portfolio sales, syndication frees up balance sheet capacity, reduces risk-weighted assets and generates fee income. Not just a funding tool, syndication is becoming central to financial strategies. Leon Atkins, Alfa’s Head of Product (Commercial Finance) commented: “Basel IV is accelerating the need for syndication across banks, independents and specialist finance providers. With the new module, Alfa’s customers can take advantage of this opportunity to reduce risk, share exposure and grow their businesses with speed and confidence.” With comprehensive syndication management, it supports automated participation creation, in-life transfers between participants and configurable treatment of fee income. Further, for revolving credit facilities, syndicates can be established at the facility level, ensuring fees and drawdowns are syndicated appropriately. ➡️More info: https://hubs.ly/Q03L7l760 #CommercialLending #CommercialFinance #AssetFinance #LoanFinance #Syndication #RevolvingCredit #Innovation
