BROOKFIELD, Wis., Oct. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Facing rising regulatory costs, staffing pressures, and the need for consistent branch execution, North Shore Bank sought a solution to streamline daily operations. By implementing the Nextenture Productivity Cloud, the bank realized significant efficiency and workforce optimization gains, including:
- 45 hours per quarter saved on audit processes
- 11 hours per day saved across branches through electronic task management
- 15+ hours per month regained by operations leadership
- A reduction in branch FTEs achieved without reducing service quality
The implementation also enhanced cross-departmental collaboration, strengthened compliance accountability with real-time visibility, and delivered full electronic audit trails that reduce remediation effort and risk exposure.
