Shawbrook slashes mortgage product development time by 88%

Prior to the transformation, the Uk specialist lender faced challenges with legacy systems, inefficient software delivery, and outdated waterfall methodologies. To address these issues, AND Digital implemented a plan that involved building an agile delivery culture, upgrading technological infrastructure, and equipping Shawbrook’s teams with modern development skills.

A fully integrated mortgage switch journey was developed using Microsoft Azure and React, combining automated valuations, credit checks, and financial decision-making for seamless processing.

AND Digital improved Shawbrook’s in-house skills to reduce ongoing development costs and shorten delivery time by transforming how customer data was stored and used.

Russ Thornton, chief technology officer at Shawbrook comments: “By working with us, rather than simply for us, AND Digital has not only delivered the product we needed, they’ve upskilled the team in a way that has fundamentally changed how we will approach digital development in the future.”

“The collaboration delivered measurable outcomes that have redefined Shawbrook’s operational capabilities. In-house development capabilities were bolstered through targeted training and coaching, enabling Shawbrook to decrease reliance on external resources and reduce ongoing development costs.”
