THE CONTEXT

A banking IT system that must open up without losing control.

Instant payments, digital channels, compliance requirements: the bank must accelerate while securing an information system built up over many years.

Synelia supports BNI on several workstreams at once: infrastructure, processes and team reinforcement. BNI spoke about this collaboration at the “Infrastructure, interoperability & banking solutions” session organised with APBEF-CI in March 2026.

THE CHALLENGES

Three objectives
to deliver together.

A fleet to bring under control

Numerous servers, patches to apply everywhere, security compliance to demonstrate.

Processing times

Business processes to automate in order to reduce lead times and re-keying.

Skills to strengthen

Specialist topics that call for experts, and knowledge to transfer to in-house teams.

OUR RESPONSE

What we
built.

Centralised fleet management

Red Hat Satellite platform: inventory, automated patching, strengthened security compliance.

BPMN workflows

Business processes modelled and executed by a workflow engine, with lead-time tracking.

Integration staff augmentation

A dedicated team embedded within the bank’s teams, for continuity and skills transfer.
