ADP Case Study BERSIN & ASSOCIATES Improving Employee Productivity and Efficiency through Technology Integration CASE STUDY CASE A New Learning Content Management Architecture at Bankia —Janet Clarey, Senior Analyst | December 2012 FOCUS: IN THIS CASE STUDY Like all companies, Bankia’s success and growth is dependent on ENTERPRISE high levels of productivity and efficiency of its employees. However, LEARNING Bankia, formerly Caja Madrid1, recognized that many manual processes in use across its network of offices were resulting in productivity challenges. As part of its response, beginning in 2009 ORGANIZATION the organization introduced the “zero paper project”2 to realize its AND GOVERNANCE vision of implementing a digital office environment through a focus on technology innovation and corporate social responsibility. LEARNING PROGRAMS To that end, Bankia implemented a series of measures focused on transforming the work processes of its employees for widespread CONTENT adoption of electronic-based systems. This included generating DEVELOPMENT electronic files for all main business processes, including training. The learning organization searched for a suitable solution for its training LEARNING content production and management, even while rolling out a MEASUREMENT technology training initiative to thousands of employees.

THIS MATERIAL IS LICENSED TO EXACT LEARNING SOLUTIONS FOR DISTRIBUTION ONLY. BERSIN & ASSOCIATES © DECEMBER 2012 • LICENSED MATERIAL IMPROVING EMPLOYEE PRODUCTIVITY AND EFFICIENCY THROUGH TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION Beyond supporting the organization’s primary initiatives, Bankia’s new learning solution also had to support the organization’s change in focus from expensive and inconsistent instructor-led training (ILT) toward a mix of e-learning, ILT, on-the-job training and beyond. In short, the organization needed to implement an entirely new learning content management strategy and architecture, while training employees on new technologies and system software. Adding to this challenge was Caja Madrid’s merger in 2011 with several other banks that formed Bankia, Spain’s largest bank. This case study will examine: • Business challenges facing Bankia, along with the 2011 merger with several other banks including Caja Madrid • Bankia’s current four-phase approach for training employees on the technological integration of other banks • Lessons learned and best practices from Bankia’s new learning content management architecture, and its enterprisewide training initiative for its new technology and systems software • How a new learning content management strategy and architecture helped to: o Reduce the number of learning content assets needed to make employees more productive and efficient by 40 percent o Reduce content development by 20 percent o Reduce the need to formally manage projects by 30 percent o Make the most of the knowledge of the organization, its partners and collaborators o Complement the organization’s corporate learning management system (LMS), collaboration software and electronic performance support system (EPSS) o Save in training costs THIS MATERIAL IS LICENSED TO EXACT LEARNING SOLUTIONS FOR DISTRIBUTION ONLY.

    2008 WORLD RETAIL BANKING REPORT Contents 5 Pricing Index 27 Organic Growth in Domestic Markets 53 Appendix: Methodology 58 About Us ©2008 Capgemini. All rights reserved. No part of this document may be reproduced or copied in any form or by any means without written permission from Capgemini. Preface For the fifth consecutive year, Capgemini, ING, and the European Financial Management & Marketing Association (EFMA) have cooperated to develop this latest annual examination of the global retail banking market. As in previous years, it provides overviews and insights into the global retail banking industry’s dynamics. This year’s edition adds two new countries, Singapore and Denmark, raising the number of countries to 26 and increasing the banks studied from 180 to 194. We continue to investigate the worldwide pricing of day-to-day banking products and services, and this year’s edition continues to highlight the evolution of bank prices for these products and services around the world. Our website, www.wrbr08.com, provides dashboards that offer more detail on each country’s national banking industry. A sample dashboard is included later in this publication. As in earlier editions, our 2008 report adds a spotlight section that focuses on a current retail banking issue. This year’s spotlight highlights the problems banks face as they search for ways to maximise their retail banks’ growth in a changing market, and how some top performers are making strategic choices that ensure their retail operations will sustain the bank’s market performance in the years ahead. Based on case studies, in-depth interviews with banking executives in each market around the world, and quantitative analysis, the spotlight section concentrates on the operational levers and client value propositions that can help retail banks grow in the high-income domestic markets in which they operate today.
