Plumb Bill Pay App: New Onboarding Module

Written by

Plumb has enhanced its proprietary bill pay and reporting web application by introducing an innovative Onboarding Module. This improvement significantly boosts the accuracy and efficiency of our client onboarding processes, resulting in improved client service.

 

For the Plumb team, this means that the onboarding process can be completed more quickly and accurately, thanks to a streamlined workflow that is aimed at unifying and tracking onboarding tasks, enforcing consistency, and reducing errors. We’re able to focus on delivering exceptional support to our clients, while minimizing delays and inefficiencies.

 

With the new Onboarding Module, clients now can input onboarding-related data directly into the application, further streamlining the process. An easy-to-navigate wizard takes them through each step of the data gathering process, allowing them to save their progress and return at their convenience. Within the system, clients have visibility to all onboarding tasks at their fingertips. By clicking the link in their Weekly Status Report email, clients can access the system to view completed and in-process tasks assigned to them and their Plumb team. A checklist and progress indicator shows clients where they are in the onboarding process and their percentage toward completion. Additionally, with our onboarding data upload feature, clients can securely upload all onboarding-related data in a central location.

 

Our onboarding feature is integrated with the Plumb Bill Pay app, and at the end of the onboarding process the client seamlessly transitions into active client status.

 

Overall, the new Onboarding module represents a significant enhancement to our web application, one that improves our internal processing, and enables our clients to directly engage with the process. Rob Scherer, CEO of Plumb says, “We wanted to create a worry-free workflow, ensuring all aspects of the client onboarding are accurately processed in a timely manner. We also wanted to empower our clients to provide data directly into the process to improve efficiency, while keeping our experienced staff just a click or phone call away if questions arise.”

 

At Plumb we constantly strive for innovation, and we are looking forward to the success that our Onboarding Module will generate!

Plumb Welcomes George Logemann as New Chief of Technology Officer

We are thrilled to share that Plumb has appointed George Logemann as our new Chief Technology Officer (CTO). George joins our team with extensive experience in financial technology and a fresh perspective that will drive our company to greater heights. As a member of our leadership team, George will play a central role in shaping and implementing our technology vision here at Plumb. George will lead software development, focusing on multiple phases of strategic enhancements and innovations, aimed at delivering exceptional value to our clients.

George has three decades of expertise in building financial technology for investment and wealth management enterprises. Notably, George dedicated over 13 years to Citadel, a leading hedge fund in the US. Within Citadel, George held various pivotal roles, including CTO and COO of Global Commodities, overseeing trading and risk technology as well as operational aspects for the firm’s commodities strategies. Prior to this, George spearheaded the creation of Citadel’s firm-wide back office platform, capable of capturing millions of daily transactions and supporting all portfolio management, operations and accounting processing. Beyond Citadel, George has dedicated several years to crafting cloud-based aggregation and operational workflow solutions for the financial advisory sector.

George’s background is broad and deep across financial technology and operations. We anticipate leveraging his leadership and experience at Plumb as we develop our comprehensive technology strategy and deliver top-tier solutions for our clients. “George brings such a cool edge and innovative creative process to our team. I am excited to see how he can expand the app and guide our technology team to new levels,” shared CEO Rob Scherer, expressing enthusiasm and optimism for the future. George has embarked on this mission by beginning to evolve our Plumb Bill Pay App into a comprehensive, interactive financial data platform. This expansion aims to offer clients not only convenience, but also valuable insights and interactive reporting features that empower them to take control of their financial health.

Unlike static reports that provide a fixed set of information, interactive reporting will allow clients to engage with their financial data dynamically. Plumb is using a scalable data warehouse, Snowflake, in tandem with the Plumb Bill Pay Application platform to obtain and pull from client data to offer more robust reporting and significant insights for our clients. Within the enhanced platform, Plumb will enable clients to gain more intuitive access to their information, customize dashboards, visualize trends, predict future cashflows, and receive real-time alerts and recommendations.

By transforming the app into a multifaceted data insights tool, we are not only enhancing its value proposition but also helping users gain a deeper understanding of their finances. This initiative will set a new standard in the fintech industry, demonstrating how technology can be harnessed to provide meaningful and interactive financial insights.

As we embark on this exciting journey, we are confident that George’s vision and expertise will enhance our technological capabilities, foster a culture of innovation, and propel us toward achieving our strategic goals. George shares, “Plumb’s leadership team cares about providing a high-quality client experience and they have outlined an innovative strategy. I am very excited to engage in this endeavor to help shape the future of the application suite and build solutions that will set us apart from other providers.” We look forward to the positive impact George will make and the advancements we will accomplish together. Join us in welcoming George to Team Plumb!
