BRANCH REDESIGN
What is ‘Branch redesign’?After shifting of most of the back office and operational functions of branch to various CPCs and administrative units, it is envisaged that branch will be a leaner outfit handling only sale & service functions. Such branches are called ‘Core Sales and Service Branches (Core SSB)’ and shall fulfil all banking needs of a customer. There are two other Branch formats – Core SSB with Affluent Module and Core SSB with SME Module, the details of which shall be discussed in next slides. The Branch Redesign involves two types of changes in a branch. The first is change in roles of various functionaries of the branch and the second is change in internal layout to facilitate functioning of role holders of a redesigned branch. The Branch Redesign aims at providing multiple benefits to both – customers as well as staff. The benefits are shown in next slide in a graphic format.

What are the basic principles used in redesigning the branches? (1/3)
•Fewer category of role-holders with multi-tasking–Single Window Operators (SWOs) to handle all service transactions where transaction time is of prime importance
–Customer Relation Officers (CROs - a new role created, as detailed in subsequent slides) to handle transactions with significant interaction and opportunity to cross-sell
–Service Manager (upgraded role of Accountant) in charge of the Service Section of the Branch. Case Managers added if the work of Service Manager exceeds one man-day.
–Full time Cash officer in currency chest branches. In hand balance branches, role to be played by the Senior SWO
–Grahak Mitra as first touch point for customer
Three key principles have been used in redesigning branches, the first is clear communication of the role with minimal variation as detailed below:

What are the basic principles used in redesigning the branches? (2/3)
•Branch Manager to build relationships with top customers of branch and spend around 60% of his time in proactive sales and marketing activities, in addition to acquisition of new valuable customers
•CROs to spend ~20% of their time in proactive sales and marketing
The second principle is increased focus on sales as detailed below:

What are the basic principles used in redesigning the branches? (3/3)
•Apart from the activities migrated to CPCs the AGM Operations (a new role created in Zonal Office) will pick up administrative activities from branch (e.g., generation of reports, staff service records, leave records), in due course. Activities will be performed by a Virtual Back Office for the time being
Third principle used in redesigning branches is non customer-facing activities migrated out of the branches as detailed below:

Key changes
• Enhanced sales focus through – Separate area in the
branch for sales– Proactive sales roles for
the Branch Manager and the CROs
• Superior customer service through– Convenience of
completing all transactions at one counter
– Use of a single queue through token system or Queue Manager
– Assistance available from Grahak Mitra on basic information
– Larger customer area in banking hall
A Core SSB will offer superior customer service & focus more on sales.

How the current roles will change to end-state roles?
*In case the workload of the Service Manager exceeds one man-day, additional Case Managers (Special Assistants) will be added; In currency chest branches, there will be an additional role of Cash officer
Core SSB
• Future roles assume transfer of all operations (activities not classified as sale & service) and administrative functions out of the branch
• In the interim, a virtual back-office would be set up outside the main banking area to take care of these functions

Can you tell me about Core SSB with Affluent Module?This branch will have the same format as that of core sales and service branch with addition of an Affluent Module. This module will be required at a branch serving affluent/mass affluent people predominantly. This category of customers prefer relationship based banking.
Affluent module Relationship Manager (Personal Banking) (RM-PB) will own 200-300 high value customers of the branch. He will be outbound for about 60% of the time, as he has to meet select top customers/ potential customers at the place of their choice. He will endeavor for up-selling/ cross-selling of retail assets, mutual funds, insurance etc. in his meetings with the customers. For providing services to the visiting high value customers a separate area within the Core SSB will be created, where RM (PB) and one support staff to RM-PB will be serving
12Next
Will there be any difference in products and services offered by Core SSBs?
The affluent module will also provide Investment Advisory services and will focus on marketing of products for Assets, Investment, Insurance, Mutual Funds, Credit Cards, Demat accounts etc., besides the usual products of the Bank. Wherever, there is enough potential for NRI business one CRO will be assigned specially for this business with the required support staff. Range of FOREX services available at the module would depend upon authorization level of the branch.

What modifications are done in the Branch layout before redesign?Guidelines for layout redesign
• Existing furniture to be used in layout, to the maximum possible extent
• Exact layout would depend on actual condition
• Create adequate customer space (60-70% of banking hall) by clearing all furniture/desks not related to redesigned branch roles and move SW counters back
• Create a self-service lobby (subject to availability of space and analyzing the security aspect) to contain an ATM, information kiosk, internet banking kiosk, drop box, a telephone (for tele-banking) and product brochures etc. It will be open 24 hours on all days of the week.
• Locate the virtual back office out of sight of the main banking hall (e.g. another floor if available or rear of banking hall with temporary partition)
• Token system/Queue Managers will be implemented for SWO counters depending on the number of counters
• Create separate Sales & Service area in the branch, with waiting area for CRO customers and provide token system in case the number of CROs is greater than 4
