This project management process revolves around choosing and developing an interface for the offering of ATM/Debit cards in an online mode. This process requires a very high level of understanding of the existing relationships which CU*Answers has with outside vendors. This process requires a high degree of coordination between yourself, CU*Answers, and the vendor of your choice.
