Digital Transformation for Stocks and Trades.

TISE faced a complex web of ageing technology and infrastructure, composed of multiple software languages, which limited its ability to maintain business-as-usual systems, embark on digital transformation, and launch essential new products.

The organisation sought CCQ’s expertise to take the next step in its digital transformation by optimising workflows, improving business logic, and ensuring the robustness of its software systems.

A critical component of this project was achieving regulatory compliance while delivering an exceptional customer experience for traders, investors, and organisations seeking to list.

1. Comprehensive Technology Audit
CCQ conducted an extensive audit of TISE’s infrastructure, examining the steps required by sponsors and members to execute key trading, listing, and regulatory tasks.

• Based on this, we created a strategic technology roadmap with clear recommendations to align with TISE’s new vision.

2. Operational Optimisation

• Through a detailed review of TISE’s workflows and processes, we identified opportunities for technology-enabled improvements.
• Our recommendations focused on simplifying and unifying infrastructure to deliver greater efficiency.

3. Modern Technology Stack Implementation

• CCQ deployed a modern, portable, and secure software stack to replace ageing systems, ensuring compatibility with existing technologies.
• New software products were developed to integrate seamlessly into the current ecosystem, enhancing functionality and scalability.

4. Knowledge Transfer and Mentorship

• Recognising the importance of internal capability, CCQ’s senior team provided ongoing training and mentorship to TISE’s in-house development team.
• This support enhanced internal knowledge, improved decision-making, and empowered TISE’s developers to take greater ownership of technical initiatives.

• Accelerated Product Development: Enabled TISE to offer enhanced services to clients, diversify its business, and enter new markets.
• Strengthened In-House Capability: Improved the technical proficiency of TISE’s development team, enabling them to make independent decisions with reduced risk to the business.
• Positioned for Innovation: Established TISE as a trusted and innovative provider in the financial sector while ensuring full regulatory compliance.
• Refined Processes and Frameworks: In close collaboration with TISE’s developers, CCQ optimised approaches, frameworks, and architectures, ensuring ongoing improvement, enhanced reliability, and support for remote working.
