Case Study: Corporate One Federal Credit Union achieves rapid, scalable digital innovation and agility with OutSystems

Corporate One Fuels Agility and High-Speed Digital Innovation with Low-Code Leader OutSystems

Corporate One Federal Credit Union is a wholesale financial services provider to more than 750 U.S. credit unions that needed a faster, more secure way to build and adapt systems of engagement for its members. Faced with costly, slow-to-customize core systems, the organization evaluated low-code platforms and selected OutSystems Sentry for its security, multi-tenant SaaS model, scalability, and support for rapid development and continuous delivery.

Using OutSystems’ multi-tenant environment with central governance, Corporate One and its subsidiaries (Sherpa Technologies and Lucro) rapidly built configurable digital services—Lucro delivered a new Digital Business Lending Center in 15 weeks and a purpose-built PPP loan approval app in one week. The solution scaled seamlessly (daily hits jumped from ~1,100 to >81,000 with APDEX holding at ~99%→98%), deployed to 28 credit unions, processed 8,000 PPP applications with 3,000 approvals totaling $130M, cut back-office work, and grew the credit union customer base by roughly two-thirds.
