The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Isn't that going to result in a load of file reads for the same

Possibly but you get the benefit of the credit limit test being
performed in one place rather than in every program that needs to
check the limit.
It's possible that some level of record caching can mitigate
additional file I/O.
What if I other customer information must be used in the message?
Then you call procedures to get that information too. A getter doesn't
just have to give back a single field--it could operate on a group of
related fields.
