A New Brand
CMS-IR's initial payment-processing framework requirements included a solution that would be easy to use, cloud based, feature rich, with data residing within a single database. With those requirements in mind the product team created CMS1View. The CMS1View brand name describes exactly what the solution is; the ability to view the entire relationship with your client.
Architechture
To achieve the CMS1View concept for people to transact in the future, the design must begin with a strong technology foundation. The CMS1View foundation is built on three pillars: AI or Artificial intelligence, Business Rules and Workflow. In addition to these key foundational elements the requirements included the separation of Workflow from the Customer Interface from the Back-Office Automation Framework. Combined they needed the ability to accept, process, post, and deliver posting files within a single digital stream no matter how the payment is paid.
A Strong Communication Portal
Our communication portal is a customer facing payment service designed to create a one-on-one billing and payment service by customer instead of the traditional one size fits all. Fundamentally, our communications portal is designed upon two basic customer questions:
"How do you want your bill or invoice sent to you that you are the most comfortable with?"
"How do you want to pay your bill or invoice to us when the payment is due that you are the most comfortable with?"
Based upon how customers respond to those questions, our portal provides a one-on-one billing and payment model for each customer. Why design and implement the solution this way? By understanding how to drive cash and by understanding how to offer the customer a payment vehicle where they are most comfortable, the more likely they are to remit their payment in a timely manner. Additionally, it provides the promotion of the digital payment approach to help accelerate cash-flow.
Through CMS1View, the communications portal offers a unique interface supporting online, walk up, over the telephone, bank bill-pay, mobile payments, traditional paper, social media, and text messaging, all as gateways for payment and bills to be presented to the customer.
