The challenge
Companies seeking financing had no consistent route to submit project details, and the Development Finance Department had no single view of applications moving through appraisal — making healthy credit risk underwriting hard to monitor at scale.
What we built
A web-based portal where qualified companies apply for financing by uploading project details and requirements, with intelligent credit assessment and automated processing feeding a monitoring view for the Development Finance Department.
