BREMERTON, Wash. Kitsap CU said it has signed with Jack Henry & Associates to convert to Episys in-house core processing provided by its Symitar subsidiary.
Kitsap is the third billion-dollar credit union to choose Episys in recent weeks, following Coastal FCU and Nassau Financial FCU. Kitsap said it wanted a system that was geared toward member relationships rather than being account-centric, making cross-sale initiatives more effective and information about entire member relationships readily available.
“Symitar’s Episys will make it easier for our members to do business with us and optimize how we can leverage the core. It will grow with our credit union as we need, today and well into the future,” said Colin Morrison, chief information officer at the $1-billion credit union.
Symitar said Episys will enable Kitsap CU to automate many processes that once required it to develop or attempt to develop workarounds. Kitsap anticipates Episys will create greater efficiency enterprise-wide, from opening new accounts and originating loans to defining and launching new products.
