At the same time, an absolutely unique transformation project in the Czech environment was launched, during which another 488,000 clients were to be added to the 820,000 clients of Raiffeisenbank. This is a very quick look back at our contribution.

Tomáš Roubíček and his team took over responsibilities for the infrastructure stream merger of Raiffeisenbank and Equa bank. We have to ensure that RB can cope with the extraordinary morsel from a technical point of view. What did the work entail? Very briefly:
- managing a team of 100 people,
- performance tests and performance increase of RB environment (provided by Jiří Pálek),
- purchase and commissioning of HW and SW in data centres,
- preparation, operation and renewal of test environments,
- migration of emails, files and applications
- and especially the management of migration exercises and the implementation of the main migration from the perspective of IT operations and infrastructure.
