Standardize processes for better
employee and customer experiences
The Challenge
After over 20 years of mergers and acquisitions, the bank realized their processes for completing certain transactions (e.g., stopping a payment or getting a refund for an overdraft) were not consistent across the organization or across channels, which was creating substantial issues for staff and customers.
The Solution
Skookum partnered with multiple teams at
the bank to create, maintain and implement
22 journey maps
Skookum became the bank’s journey mapping agency of record to help make these processes more consistent, deliver better customer experiences, and identify new opportunities for ongoing improvement and innovation. We analyze which problems need to be solved, create and maintain 22 interactive journey maps, provide the tools and teams to socialize the journey maps within the bank, and ensure the output is actionable.

The Value
