Project Details:

Project 1: Project Name Client Duration Role Environment Tools Project Description: The Royal bank of Scotland is one of the retail banking subsidiaries of the The Royal Bank of Scotland Group plc, and together with NatWest and Ulster, provides banking facilities throughout the British Isles. The Royal Bank of Scotland has around 700 branches, mainly in Scotland though there are branches in many larger towns and cities throughout England and Wales. The Royal Bank of Scotland and its parent, The Royal Bank of Scotland Group, are completely separate from the fellow Edinburgh based bank, the Bank of Scotland, which pre-dates The Royal Bank of Scotland by 32 years. The VARS system exists as a discrete online and batch application. The online application resides in the Back Office system and can be accessed via the Flexible Loan menu in both Enquiry and Input modes. It currently possesses a number of functions to enable users to display and / or update the Loan information for accounts that exist on VARS. However, these functions and the underlying VARS loan information are not currently available to TTP or any other system. The purpose of this project is to make some of the loan information that is stored on VARS accessible to other systems via creating a new VARS function which will subsequently call the existing VARS online functions to return the required VARS loan information.

Project 3: Project Name Client Duration Role Environment Tools Project Description: During the Y2K conversion project, 1921 was decided as the Pivot year to identify the century value. If the two-digit year is less than 21, it is then considered the 21st century. Otherwise, the year is considered 20th century. A few Y2K date format conversion modules were created and dynamically called from programs where this processing was needed. In addition, this pivot year is hard coded in many of the mainframe applications and it has to be increased to a higher value before 2021 in order for the applications to function properly.
