PhoenixEFE is an integrated enterprise software platform that brings together Harland Financial Solutions' real-time core processing solution with the company's market-leading specialized applications. Its capabilities span the functions of the financial institution's entire enterprise.

In addition to PhoenixEFE Core, the bank has purchased numerous integrated solutions, including LaserPro for compliant loan documents, CreditQuest for commercial loan risk management, Touché Analyzer for business intelligence, the Cavion suite, which includes Internet banking, business banking, mobile banking and voice banking, ActiveView Content Management, ActiveView Item Processing, ActiveView Merchant Capture, and Electronic Funds Transfer.

Hawaii National Bank cites a desire for vendor consolidation, Microsoft-centric technology and the need for real-time access to data facilitated by PhoenixEFE as the primary reasons for partnering with Harland Financial Solutions.

"By consolidating services with a single, trusted partner like Harland Financial Solutions, we are able to stay competitive and provide a more consistent experience to our customers, regardless of the channels they use to do their banking," said Bryan Luke, executive vice president of Hawaii National Bank. "The ability to access data from the open database of PhoenixEFE Core, as well as its modern, Microsoft-centric architecture, allows us to expand our analysis and design out-of-the-box programs. We expect little learning curve with the Microsoft Office-like user interface and look forward to utilizing the strong end-to-end lending capabilities, which will support compliance, and save us time by automating and streamlining our lending processes."

"The objectives of Hawaii National Bank are in perfect alignment with our extended financial enterprise strategy," said Scott Hansen, executive vice president of business development at Harland Financial Solutions. "An open system, such as PhoenixEFE Core, allows for the creativity progressive banks need to remain strong and ahead of the competition. Also, implementing integrated, specialized solutions from one provider helps financial institutions focus more time and energy on running the bank instead of managing multiple vendor relationships and incompatible technology."
