Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
The existing systems for approving variance and recourse transactions in the mortgage market are inefficient, leading to delayed processing and inconsistent approval due to the complexity of communications between multiple parties, increasing the risk for lenders and requiring a need for streamlined analysis and approval processes.
Innovation Solution
A system and method for facilitating the analysis of variance and recourse transactions, including an interface for input data, a transaction request processor, and a reporting engine to generate assessments, utilizing a database for historical transaction data and rules processing to automate decision-making, thereby streamlining the approval process and enhancing consistency.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If traditional manual analysis and approval process is used for variance and recourse transactions, then flexibility in handling complex transactions is maintained, but processing time is significantly delayed and consistency is highly variable
Solution Approach 1:
The patent replaces the manual mechanical approval process with an automated computer-based system that uses algorithms and rules engines to evaluate variance and recourse transactions. This substitution dramatically reduces processing time while maintaining consistent evaluation criteria, resolving the contradiction between productivity improvement and system complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The system enables self-service automation where the computer automatically analyzes transaction data, applies evaluation rules, and generates approval decisions without requiring extensive manual intervention. This self-service capability increases processing speed while the automated nature ensures consistency across all transactions.
2Reliability
If numerous communications between multiple parties are involved in the approval process, then thorough analysis can be conducted, but processing is unduly delayed
Solution Approach 1:
The patent merges multiple communication channels and evaluation steps into a single integrated computer-based system that simultaneously processes all transaction data and applies all evaluation criteria. This consolidation maintains thorough analysis by considering all relevant factors while eliminating the time delays caused by sequential communications between multiple parties.
Solution Approach 2:
The system performs preliminary automated analysis of transaction data before human review, pre-processing and organizing information so that subsequent evaluation can be conducted more efficiently. This preliminary action ensures thorough analysis is completed while minimizing the time required for subsequent approval steps.
3Reliability
If manual approval process with multiple parties is used, then comprehensive review is achieved, but consistency in approving transactions is highly variable
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transforms the approval process from a variable human decision-making process to a standardized computer-based evaluation system that applies consistent parameters and rules to all transactions. By changing the evaluation parameters from subjective human judgment to objective algorithmic criteria, the system achieves high approval consistency while managing complexity through automation.
Solution Approach 2:
The system applies uniform evaluation criteria and processing rules to all variance and recourse transactions, ensuring homogeneous treatment regardless of which party or individual is involved. This homogeneity in the approval process eliminates variability and ensures consistent outcomes across all transactions.
4Adaptability or versatility
If variance transactions are approved to accommodate seller requests, then flexibility in loan delivery is improved, but risk to purchaser increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements a feedback mechanism where the computer-based system automatically evaluates each variance transaction against predefined risk criteria and purchaser requirements. This feedback loop ensures that while flexible accommodation of seller requests is possible, any increase in purchaser risk is immediately identified and can be rejected or adjusted before approval, thus managing risk while maintaining adaptability.
