Design Thinking has transformed from a core iterative process to a rule book for all our products and is at the core of our Design Center.
Design Thinking’s effect on our offerings has inspired us to create this one-of-its-kind experience zone – 8012 FinTech Design Center. Design Thinking lies at the heart of the Design Center where the sparks of innovation and enterprise are ignited.

The 8012 FinTech Design Center enables co-creation of products that go beyond the expectations of our customers. It is a lab that drives collaborative experiences by making the Design process intellectually stimulating.

It allows us to:
  • Interrogate a problem
  • Challenge status quo
  • Design viable solutions
  • Demystify complexities
  • Create algorithms

Customers Speak

The aim of 8012 FinTech Design Center is to add value to each business, and it’s an honour when customers find meaning in our Design Thinking philosophy and their experience at the Design Center.
“The FT8012 Design Center is a novel concept that brings a disparate group of stakeholders from two organizations to ideate, share and build in-depth knowledge on a wide range of topics in a very informal but structured manner.”

iTurmeric - MACH composable platform

iTurmeric is a light weight JAVA based platform for composing MACH services. It is a low coding platform developed by Intellect Design Arena. The platform provides advanced and user-friendly SDK studio to design, develop and test composed user journeys
The platform relieves non-technical developers from having to write code while still supporting professional developers by abstracting tedious plumbing and infrastructure tasks required in application integration. Working together, developers in the business and IT create, iterate, and release APIs and message driven business processes in quick time than it takes with traditional methods. This low-code application development enables production of a full range of integration patterns for disparate use cases. These integration patterns include publishing APIs, message listeners, message routers, transformations, rule based routing, message enhancements and complex orchestration.
While iTurmeric provides features to develop integration applications of disparate types, we can also use the platform for UI and Reports development. The UI as well as reports developed on iTurmeric platform can be made available on desktops, tablets and mobiles seamlessly
can be used for development of
  • Data Design
  • Process Design
  • Rules Design
  • Events Design
  • API Design
  • UI Design
iTurmeric allows enterprises to connect applications together quickly and easily, enabling them to exchange data. It enables easy integration of existing systems, regardless of dierent communication technologies that the applications use, including JMS, Restful, JDBC, HTTP, SFTP, FTP and more.
The key advantage of iTurmeric is that it allows dierent applications to communicate with each other by acting as a transit system for carrying data between applications within the enterprise or across Internet.
