ARMCO Reduces QC Turn Times with ACES’ New Parallel Workflow Capability

POMPANO BEACH, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- ACES Risk Management (ARMCO), the leading provider of enterprise financial risk mitigation solutions, has announced several product enhancements to its auditing platform, ACES Audit Technology(TM). This upgrade introduces a new parallel workflow capability that saves time and reduces turn times while maintaining the quality of staff output. The ultimate result of this feature is faster loan delivery.

ACES' new parallel workflow increases efficiency by enabling multiple analysts to concurrently evaluate different parts of the same loan. It also automates task prioritization to assure the fastest cycle times for each loan.

"Most lenders at least attempt some level of parallel activity in their QC [quality control] workflow," said Trevor Gauthier, ARMCO's new CEO. "Our decision to enable parallel workflow was in direct response to market demand. It replaces workarounds that rely on email and spreadsheets with a fully auditable process in a 100 percent secure environment."

Other noteworthy enhancements include ACES' new auto-answer feature that uses business rules to automatically answer audit questions based on available loan data, and enhanced single sign-on that can reduce on-boarding time by 50 percent or more.

ACES' newest upgrade was introduced at the ACES Power User Summit that took place on Nov. 10-12, 2019 in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

"ARMCO's user summits are a very important source of information for our clients and our organization," said Gauthier. "We have the opportunity to learn from one another, which enables us to create lasting solutions for our clients' most pressing needs. Client collaboration is at the heart of everything we do at ARMCO. When our clients are successful, we are successful."

ARMCO Completes Fast Track 45-Day Implementation Delivering on Bay Equity’s QC Update Deadline

POMPANO BEACH, Fla. /ScoopCloud/ -- ACES Risk Management (ARMCO), the leading provider of enterprise financial risk mitigation solutions, has announced that it has implemented ACES Audit Technology(TM) for Bay Equity Home Loans, well within the lender's 45-day deadline for launching its new quality control (QC) operations.

"It was a tall order to get everything up and running, configured, and have everyone trained within 45 days," said Cyndi Clouse, AVP of Quality Control for Bay Equity. "ARMCO's team was with us literally every step of the way. It's a 180-degree difference from implementations where you can feel abandoned once you sign the contract."

Bay Equity Home Loans is a full-service retail mortgage lending institution founded in June 2007. When senior management decided to update the company's QC processes, department executives seized the opportunity to find a technology that would improve its QC workflow.

Since implementing ACES, the company not only successfully launched its updated quality control initiatives, but also gained tangible efficiencies in its QC processes:
* Replaced email and spreadsheets as a means for sharing information, with a secure, real-time online platform that connects multiple QC locations
* Reduced turn times for month-end reports from several days to roughly one hour
* Accelerated configuration times from as much as five days, to just a few minutes.

Bay Equity was looking for an enterprise QC platform that was highly configurable to meet its unique business needs.

"We love that ACES' configurability gives such versatility in the ways we can use the technology," said Clouse. "We're looking forward to expanding use into our servicing QC audits and possibly within other Bay Equity departments.

"Proactive companies like Bay Equity always appreciate the superior implementation experience our client success team delivers," said Phil McCall, president of ARMCO. "We're thrilled to welcome Bay Equity to the ARMCO client family and we're looking forward to delivering an ongoing exceptional client experience."
