SAN DIEGO - To try and do the impossible-stay ahead of the technology curve-credit union data processor Symitar Systems has created a new Research and Design Department. "This department consists of a group of people whose sole mandate is to scan the horizon for new technologies," said Jim Honeycutt, Research and Design Director for Symitar. "The ultimate goal of the department is to take the time to really understand the different technologies out there. There are innumerable possibilities waiting to be discovered...." The Research and Design Department also plans on collaborating with Symitar credit union clients to determine what types of services credit unions are looking for. "People at research levels need to talk to clients. It's very helpful to exchange information for the future development of new products," said Honeycutt. Once the new department discovers a technology that it wants to develop for its clients, it will first determine whether it's best to be built in-house or outsourced to a third party. The new department is expected to work closely with Symitar's existing Product Development Department.
