Technical evaluation and selection

CA Auto Bank and Drivalia will conduct a technical evaluation of each proposal collected to identify the maturity level of the company, the potential benefit of the proposed use case compared to other solutions available in the market, the interest of the proposed application scope, and the applicability of the solution within CA Auto Bank.
