OPTIMISING TRADING APPLICATIONS: CAPABILITY ASSESSMENT PART 1

BJSS’ capability assessment allows you to build synergy between your organisations IT Teams, Executive Office and Users, allowing you to understand the future capabilities of your trading platform and the key characteristics of each capability.<br/>

During BJSS’ Capability Assessment, we will assess the Must Have, Should Have and Would Have Capabilities for your future trading platform. Core capabilities are outlined below:<br/>

• Governance : Helps to build trust in the platform, and more importantly, the data held within that platform
• Access : Creating a single ‘front door’ for data access, allowing all users to access the information that they require
• Service : Facilitation of services to the business
• Catalogue : Allowing easy location and access of key data, or derivations of that data in a timely manner
• Compute: Analyse known computations, explore more sophisticated trading models and advanced analytics
• Intake : Provide suitable tooling for each data type and facilitate the rapid onboarding of new data
• Storage : Core capability of any data platform is the storage of data, in its various forms, to suit the context and the purpose.<br/>

This will ensure that your organisation have a holistic, detailed understanding of the crucial capabilities required in order to realise maximum benefit from your future trading application.<br/>
