What We Deliver

Our
Capabilities.

Core Banking System Maintenance

Ongoing maintenance and support for COBOL-based core banking platforms, keeping mission-critical transaction processing stable and compliant.

Legacy System Modernization

Phased modernization of COBOL systems — API wrapping, data migration, and gradual re-platforming without disrupting live banking operations.

COBOL Developer Training Program

A structured, hands-on COBOL training curriculum for local developers, addressing the skills gap left by retiring COBOL engineers.

Batch Processing & Job Scheduling

Design, monitoring, and troubleshooting of overnight batch jobs, interest calculations, and end-of-day banking processes.

Core Banking Integration

Connecting COBOL core banking systems to modern mobile money, ATM, and digital banking channels via secure middleware.

Regulatory Reporting Support

Ensuring core banking reports meet Bank of Uganda and SACCO regulatory reporting requirements, accurately and on schedule.

Disaster Recovery for Core Systems

Backup, failover, and disaster recovery planning specifically for core banking environments, where downtime is not an option.

24/7 Core Banking Support

Round-the-clock support for core banking incidents, with defined SLAs given the criticality of these systems.

How We Work

The Process.
No Surprises.

01

System Assessment

We review your existing COBOL core banking environment, documentation, and support arrangements to identify risk areas.

02

Support Transition

Knowledge transfer and handover into our support model, with defined SLAs for incidents and change requests.

03

Modernization Roadmap

A phased plan to modernize integration points and reduce key-person risk, without a disruptive rip-and-replace.

04

Training & Handover

Local developers are trained through our COBOL program, building sustainable in-house capacity alongside our ongoing support.

Who We Serve

Built For
These Organisations.

Uganda's banks and SACCOs still run mission-critical operations on COBOL core banking systems, but the pool of experienced COBOL engineers is shrinking as veterans retire. Advatech maintains, supports, and modernizes these platforms, while running a structured COBOL training program to build local capacity before that knowledge gap becomes a crisis.
