Identifying Opportunities
What is a Tune Up?
Tune Up is a service that credit unions can request at any time. Whether you are a new client, or a seasoned CU*BASE veteran, a Lending Tune Up will help your team identify new products and services you could be offering your members. But wait, there’s more! We’ll not only review products and services, we’ll also review your current fee configurations, third-party vendors, specific product configurations, and more, similar to the exhaustive review your credit union did back when you were first doing your due diligence for your conversion. This is an opportunity to take a second look to see if everything is functioning as planned and work with your team to identify potential process improvements.
How does the program work?
- You choose the level of inspection you need. We have experts across the network that can help you and your team take a second look!
- The facilitators will work with you to determine the specifics of the engagement.
- Each engagement is customized to meet the credit union’s needs.
- A Lending Tune Up can generally be completed in about a day and a half, but the exact timing will be determined by you and your facilitator.
