Alpharetta, GA (PRWEB) August 16, 2012

Financial Management Solutions, Inc. (FMSI), a provider of business intelligence solutions for banks and credit unions, announced today that The Fauquier Bank has adopted FMSIs Teller Management System (TMS). The $ 598 million Virginia based bank can now approach its branch scheduling with a more sophisticated process including third party reporting and scheduling resourcesresulting in the optimization of their service and staffing expenses at their 10 branch locations.

“Before partnering with FMSI, when filling a teller position we would reference our internal reports to determine if we could fill in the gap with our existing teller pool without replacing the position, says Mark Debes, SVP Retail Banking and Marketing at The Fauquier Bank. While we certainly made some improvements with this approach, FMSIs trial assessment showed us that we were actually leaving an awful lot on the table. For instance, instead of seven or six associates in a branch we only needed four.

The Teller Management System schedules tellers based on forecasted transaction volumes, thus helping banks gain better control of labor costs while increasing service levels.

“Before partnering with FMSI, we never got into the science behind transactions per hour, adds Debes. It was very eye-opening for us when we saw our tellers actual excess waiting-for-work times from the FMSI trial assessmentshowing us that we were actually overstaffed during our perceived busiest times.

Without the right business intelligence, most financial institutions are not equipped to make a thorough evaluation of teller performance levels, says W. Michael Scott, President/CEO of FMSI. “FMSI has more than 20 years of experience helping banks improve the productivity of their staffs through meaningful business intelligence. Our unique solutions for measuring and forecasting transaction volumes on a monthly basis regularly reveal areas for better service and increased productivity.”
