Services Overview

Catena Technologies' service offerings combine subject matter expertise with technical excellence. Years of business experience working with world-class banks, stock exchanges and financial institutions around the world provide us with perspective on the best practices to be applied in the areas of business process automation and improvement. Specific business areas that Catena Technologies offers specialized skills include retail and wholesale banking operations, call center processes, trading and order routing, and securities operations.

Catena Technologies' technical experience designing Service Oriented Architectures (SOAs) and implementing large scale systems integration architectures enables us to combine business process management (BPM), enterprise application integration (EAI), and enterprise content management (ECM) to produce effective solutions. With an in-depth understanding of network communication protocols, we understand the complexity of financial institutions' network environment; factoring physical and topological considerations into resilient architecture designs.

Beyond understanding the business domain and having a solid technology framework, it is critical to address the organizational considerations that make projects a success. Our project delivery methodology focuses on ensuring that requirements are well understood up front and often sets out to verify them through the quick implementation of a proof-of-concept system. A working model provides users and system designers with a tangible understanding of what the system must do. Catena Technologies also applies change management and time-boxing approaches to ensure that project deliveries optimize time and functionality trade offs.
