Introducing opsPhlo by Phlo Systems
In today's dynamic commodity markets, traders face significant challenges when it comes to updating and aligning trading systems with evolving business imperatives. The process is often expensive, complex, risky, and time-consuming. Many trading organizations acknowledge the need for system updates but often delay due to cost, risk, and the evolving market landscape.
Choosing a new system that meets current needs in the traditional way can take nine months or longer to go live, by which time requirements and market conditions may have shifted. Moreover, companies often desire features from multiple systems, leading to compromises in the final selection and additional complexities in customization, integration and ongoing support.
Phlo Systems addresses these challenges with opsPhlo, a modular, flexible, and agile trading platform. opsPhlo can start small and implemented incrementally over time, thereby reducing traditional big system risk, complexity, and project delivery change management. This modular approach allows businesses to adapt the system in real-time to changing market and trading conditions.
