Frequently Asked

Questions, answered

What financial institutions ask us most before sourcing their IT through a channel partner.

Do your solutions support financial compliance requirements?+
We help you select vendors and configurations aligned to frameworks relevant to finance — including PCI-DSS, SOC 2, and GLBA-related controls such as encryption, access management, monitoring, and audit-ready reporting. Compliance is ultimately a shared responsibility between your institution and your vendors, and part of our role is making sure the vendors we match you with can meet those obligations.
Does Jones Blacksmith charge financial institutions for consultation?+
No. As a channel partner, our consultation, vendor matching, and coordination are free — we're compensated by the vendors in our network. You pay the providers directly, typically at rates equal to or better than approaching them on your own.
Can you support multi-branch banks and credit union networks?+
Yes. Multi-branch financial environments are a core focus. We coordinate connectivity, voice, and security across headquarters, branches, and remote offices — sequencing deployments to minimize disruption to transaction processing, all tracked through one project plan.
Will new technology disrupt our core banking or trading systems?+
Minimizing disruption to critical systems is central to how we scope and sequence every deployment. We assess how your core banking, trading, and payment platforms use the network, size solutions accordingly, and coordinate cutover windows with your IT team to keep operations uninterrupted.
We already work with some vendors. Do we have to replace everything?+
Not at all. Many financial institutions bring us in to fill specific gaps or take over coordination of existing contracts. We assess what's working, identify where upgrades or consolidation add value, and build a transition plan that respects your current systems and renewal timelines.
Who do we contact when there's an issue?+
Your dedicated account team. Instead of chasing individual vendors during an IT issue, you raise it with us and we drive it to resolution with the relevant provider — managing escalations against their SLAs and keeping you informed throughout.
