Montana credit unions have Talent
Such wonderful talent. The talent you have and the work they do is a big part of why Credit Union members choose their Credit Union and stay with them. It’s the Tellers, Loan Officers, Executives, and Associates who work hard every day to serve their member’s needs across loans, credit cards, mobile banking, savings, checking, etc.
Credit Union Operations are challenging!
The day-to-day operations of a Credit Union can be overwhelming. It takes a lot of people, processes, tools, and varying skills to make it work for members, government regulations, and the bottom—line.
Executives need to keep the end users, processors, trustees, and regulators all happy.
The IT Function is juggling a wide variety of systems, departmental needs, and end-user help desk issues all while trying to maintain IT compliance, cybersecurity, and the new stuff the organization needs to be implemented.
it talent is key to success for montana credit unions!
Montana Credit Unions are diverse in terms of their size and scope.
Small Credit Unions struggle with meeting their IT needs because they aren’t large enough to hire internally and the outside resources they typically deal with are either expensive/out of state or they are local but can’t handle the depth and breadth of their needs across IT Help Desk, Projects, Compliance, Cybersecurity, Backups, etc.
Larger Credit Unions with internal IT staff have too much to do (planning, budgeting, fixing issues, adding new infrastructure, regulatory compliance, cybersecurity, procurement) and not enough specialists to get it done. Specialists are hard to hire and even tougher to train up given the work demands and the out of State companies never seem to be the right fit for Montana Credit Unions and can’t flex the way that is needed.

Our IT Services
Many Credit Unions in Montana don’t have an IT person, let alone an entire IT Department. For those, a Done FOR You IT Department helps to shoulder the weight of the technology.
By outsourcing your IT, you can expect to see improvements in:
Productivity
Morale
Competitiveness
Security & Risk
Bottom Line
For larger Credit Unions with IT personnel, it’s the Done WITH You approach.
Working with a team of IT experts can help support your existing IT team by providing:
Vision & Planning
Security & Compliance
Infrastructure Projects
Support & Staff Augmentation
Improved Tools & Processes
Security. Hardening. Isn’t. Tough. Or, at least, it doesn’t have to be with the right cybersecurity partner. Cybersecurity assessments & implementation can help you:
Identify/Close/Maintain Gaps
Regulatory Compliance
24/7/365 Protections
Risk Management and Recovery Capabilities
Affordability
Proof you are doing what you say you are.
