SOFGEN's microfinance team came highly recommended," remarked Mr. Dinn Dos, Deputy CEO, AMRET. SOFGEN assembled a team of business and technical engineers drawn from its global consultant pool.
At Head Office, the team carried out requirements analysis, system design, system build, data migration and user training. Further training was delivered to the AMRET IT team, enabling them continue with the deployment of the system to the branch network.

Tunde Oladele, Chief Executive Officer SOFGEN Africa and Executive Committee Member responsible for Microfinance worldwide, observed, "The AMRET implementation was a challenging project. SOFGEN and the bank worked diligently to overcome language barriers and other cultural differences. We congratulate AMRET for their hard work and tenacity."
