In 2015, Sufi searched for a solution that would simplify its lending processes and help it meet the rising demand for same-day financing. Using FICO® Origination Manager, Sufi has accelerated the processing of applications and provided greater flexibility in decisions about new loan agreements. Sufi uses the Decision Module as its decision engine, and the Application Processing Module, which works as a workflow automation tool, accelerating decisions and enabling operations from any location.

"FICO has successfully reduced our response times thanks to an automation platform that digitizes the entire financing process," said Nataly Perez, purchasing experience manager at Sufi. "This allows our risk department to instantly assess the applicant's risk and reduce processing time to a few minutes, which prevents customers from going elsewhere to seek financing."
