August 10, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
Woolworths, one of Africa’s largest clothing and food retailers, has signed an expanded strategy consulting agreement with PIC Solutions to support its TRIAD™ adaptive control system.

The TRIAD system, from Fair Isaac Corporation, has become the global-standard account management solution for consumer credit grantors as it provides sophisticated risk management functionality in the credit limit management, collections and marketing communications environments. By making the right decisions for every account in a portfolio, lenders are able to increase revenue, reduce losses, improve customer service and ultimately, increase portfolio profitability and drive sustainable competitive advantage.

Woolworths Financial Services has been successfully using the TRIAD system for ten years and achieved significant improvements in the areas of employee turnover, collections processes and strategies. PIC Solutions strategy consultants will provide on-going consulting support to ensure Woolworths Financial Services continues to maximise the solution’s functionalities for effective decision making.

Sivi Pillay, Head of Customer Risk and Compliance at Woolworths Financial Services, comments, “TRIAD has proven to be an effective tool in assisting us with our objective to strategically change our business decisions and policies. This leading system has presented us with new opportunities to grow our business and through this consulting contract, PIC Solutions strategy consultants will ensure we continue to make successful credit and collections strategies.”

Dave Lewis, Director of Consulting at PIC Solutions, adds, “We are pleased to work with Woolworths on this TRIAD consulting assignment. Woolworths has successfully leveraged TRIAD’s functionalities to meet their objectives and this has led to more effective decisions being made. Our risk management consulting team will work closely with the Woolworths team to ensure that they continue to experience the full benefits of TRIAD.”
