BAI Beacon Presentation on October 5th: Using the Branch Footprint as an Advantage for Geographical Workforce Optimization
Speakers:

Amy Bullock, Senior Vice President of Branch Banking Workforce Management, SunTrust Bank
Ben Hopper, Vice President of Retail Strategy, First Tennessee Bank
Branches are far from obsolete. They are still the primary channel for customer engagement, relationship building, sales and revenue generation, yet the branch network is also expensive. One of the key challenges in managing the branch network is that it is distributed – it has multiple locations and multiple work areas / queues - and as transaction volume continues to decline, it becomes more and more difficult to obtain economies and balance the priorities of gaining further efficiency while growing sales and revenue. This presentation will cover how geographic workforce optimization will enable retail banks to leverage their branch network – a network that is inherently inefficient with many locations and many queues – to grow revenue and improve efficiency.
Banking Analytics 2016 Presentation on October 20th: Optimizing Branch Operating Hours and Staffing Levels with Predictive Analytics
Speakers:
Stephen Griffin, Senior Vice President of Retail Distribution Strategy and Sales/Staffing Analytics, Regions Bank
Abhyuday Desai, Ph.D., Vice President of Analytics, Kiran Analytics
When it comes to optimizing branch operating hours and labor schedules, retail banks are faced with a critical challenge. They need to balance the trade-offs between customer experience, revenue growth and operational efficiency. Banks that simply use daily transaction counts and a one-size-fits-all approach to setting operating hours and staffing levels are likely to end up with too little or too much capacity. Too little capacity means longer wait times, frustrated customers, and missed sales opportunities. Too much capacity translates to excess staffing costs and operational expenses. This presentation will cover how predictive analytics based on branch transaction history, network proximity, customer demographics, and market competition is helping assess the impact of changing branch operating hours on activity volume and staffing requirements.
