Financial Services CUSO makes strategic promotions to support ongoing growth, company direction

Member Driven Technologies (MDT), a CUSO that hosts the Symitar core processing system from Jack Henry^™ to provide a private cloud alternative for core processing and IT needs, has added to its C-suite, appointing Dan Schneider as Chief Project Officer and Greg Lanigan as Chief Information Officer. Other notable promotions have been made as well, including elevating Tracie Loudermilk to Vice President of Project and Consulting Solutions.

Schneider, who has been with MDT for over 15 years, most recently served as the company's Vice President of Project Management and Implementations. As MDT’s first CPO, he will accelerate the delivery of high-quality service and solutions to ensure credit unions stay competitive in today's digital landscape. “MDT is driving meaningful change within financial services, helping credit unions future proof their businesses and approach to member service,” said Schneider. “In my new role, I’ll be able to better support this mission by helping shape our strategies.”

As the Chief Information Officer, Greg Lanigan will be responsible for all technical infrastructure, including Microsoft, Technical, AIX and Cisco support. “At MDT, we remain dedicated to providing the robust, secure and flexible infrastructure that empowers credit unions to grow and succeed both now and in the future. I’m looking forward to directly supporting these goals in my new role,” said Lanigan.

These promotions have been made to support MDT’s commitment to prioritizing leading digitally optimized solutions, as well as consultative solutions to the credit union industry. Last month, MDT launched its Project Management Consulting Services, enabling clients to plan, implement and optimize critical initiatives across the institution. The offering supports credit unions in managing project scope, cost, time, and quality while helping deliver new skill sets and tools to staff. Tracie Loudermilk will oversee this team and these client engagements.

"The expansion of our executive team with Dan, Greg, Tracie, and several other talented staff members, directly supports our belief that digitally optimized solutions, flexible architecture that enables partnerships of choice, and consultative projects and collaboration with trusted partners will be key to credit union success moving forward,” said Larry Nichols, CEO and president of MDT. "I am incredibly proud of the team, client community and technology ecosystem we have built, and I look forward to seeing all that this enhanced structure and group can accomplish together.”
