Check Standardization--Two Down, Two More to Go

In April, the Louisville office successfully converted to Check Standardization. In early May, the Eighth District passed the project halfway mark when the Little Rock branch successfully completed its cutover. By the middle of May, the new platform was running smoothly in both offices and deadlines were being met timely.

The Memphis and St. Louis offices are converting this summer, wrapping up one of the largest projects ever undertaken in the Eighth District.
