Our story

Founded to do one thing: precision execution.

The plan is rarely the problem. Execution is where programs slip.

Ignite Banking was founded in 2011 to deliver the complex technology programs financial institutions cannot afford to get wrong. We don't sell software, and we are vendor agnostic by design.

Our practitioner-led teams pair business strategy with deep technical experience, simplify complexity, coordinate the vendor partners involved, and carry critical transformations to the finish line.

We plan, design, build and deliver programs in commercial treasury, digital banking, core and platform modernization, payments, M&A technology, integration, and financial crimes, for banks, credit unions and fintechs.

How we partner with clients

We meet you where the program is.

Every client journey is different. Some clients bring us a plan that needs a team to execute and deliver; some clients bring us an implementation that has stalled.

Strategy, carried into execution

We turn the plan you have into a sequenced, staffed program, and coordinate every vendor workstream through go-live.

Embedded with your teams

We work inside your business and technology teams as hands-on delivery leaders, not observers with a status report.

Accountable and transparent

We answer to you, not to a product, or a vendor's agenda.

In it for the long term

We build real partnerships with our clients - relationships that stand the test of time.

What makes us different

We work in the middle, so the institution and its vendors both succeed.

The right team, from day one

We assemble the cross-functional team, your people, the vendor's and ours, around the integration problems before they become schedule problems.

In the middle of the triangle

We sit within your institution, between your vendors, technology, product, and business stakeholders, and solve the changes that none of them can solve alone.

Gaps actioned, not reported

Architecture & integration conflicts, data mapping gaps, and operational misalignments get solutioned, and the fix is implemented/coordinated across stakeholder teams.

Clarity, sooner

Practitioner judgment cuts through months of back-and-forth and turns complexity into a plan your business and technology teams can execute.

Our people

Senior practitioners, and a place they want to stay.

Our associates are our greatest asset, and they are the reason clients come back.

We hire deeply experienced professionals who bring real-world knowledge to every engagement, and we build an environment where they can do their best work: collaboration, ownership and continual learning, with real impact on every client program.
