Delivery

We pride ourselves on consistently delivering successful deployments. We work with banks to provide the delivery approach best suited to their needs:
Self service

In this model, the bank largely deploys the Vault platform itself. This is possible through:

  • An extensive SDK and documentation explaining every aspect of platform functionality and behaviour
  • Our training portal for banks to train and certify their staff. This allows them to rapidly up-skill and support configuration and deployment.
Our experts
  • Our expert client services teams works alongside banks or partners, transferring skills and knowledge, providing configuration, architecture and migration expertise and ensuring successful deployment
  • We can either empower banks to become self-sufficient and take full ownership of future product expansion or provide long-term support services
Delivery Partner Programme

Thought Machine is committed to setting up our clients and partners for success through our enablement and expert services. Thought Machine’s Delivery Partner Programme is designed to meet the growing requirements of our clients looking for certified partners to support their adoption of the Vault platform.

We have two certification levels: Vault Fundamentals and Vault Professionals. The programme provides a clear pathway for partners to become enabled and certified at the Vault Professionals level in business analysis, architecture, smart contract engineering, and infrastructure.



Designed to meet the implementation needs of our clients and partners

Thought Machine’s clients expect a standard of competence in deploying, integratingand building banking products from Thought Machine and our partners. Beyond experience in Vault Core deployments, professional certifications also provide evidence of competency.

Thought Machine’s goal is to enable our delivery partners to:

  • become professionally certified and proficient in each of the disciplines required for a successful Vault delivery,
  • become an extension of Thought Machine delivery services to support our growing and ever-demanding client base
  • reach a state of self-sufficiency in the deployment of Vault with less reliance on Thought Machine delivery services support and
  • generate increased income for partners from core banking change programmes through the deployment of Vault, including, but not limited to, migration, integration and end-to-end testing services.
