• Project: Link Loans

This project was developed to avoid tracking multiple loans taken on the same property.

The loans on the same property are linked to each other and tracking will be based on

Abhilash Soma - Page 4 of 8

one Primary loan, if there are multiple loans present. This would reduce the cost of

Tracking and maintenance of a loan.

This process has introduced new Windows Services, Web UI’s to the existing system

flow. The challenging part was to integrate these services to the existing systems flow

without any leakage.

• Project: Auto SSA

This project is to implement the EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) for Auto lenders in

Rembrandt Process which will include matching of the Loans and then sending them to

the CCS system (Main Frames. This Project would replace existing jobs in Mainframe.

We have introduced a tool called SSA which would give the matching scares based on

the % matched. The challenging part was to maintain the documents flow speed and

should be able to handle large data along with performance.

• Project: BOA to CHL

This project was initiated when BOA purchased CFC and we had to move data from

BOA system to CFC system. We had to modify almost all the applications in our existing

systems to handle the data and should not compromise on the performance.

• Project : EDI processing

This process is mainly used to process the Escrowed payments for some of the lenders.

In case of Escrowed payments, Balboa pays the insurance premium on behalf of the

lender and later claims the amount from the lender. The main advantage of this process

is that everything is done electronically to save time and money by avoiding paper work.

• Project: Outbound Letters

This module is used to Track and Store all the Letters sent to the customers. The

Letters which are stored can be viewed by the customer Representative at any time.

Responsibilities:

• Identified and gathered the requirements and defined the business rules to user

requirements in Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC).

• Responsible for developing WCF Service Libraries to exchange data between

different lender systems like Fidelity, AS400 and Mainframes.

• Project: CHL(Countrywide home loans) Implementation (Phase I)

The portfolio of this lender is in Millions and hence the document processing for this

lender requires daily throughput of 800**-****** documents. This also requires real

time updates to AS/400 system (Lender database). A separate set of services are used

for insurance tracking which are specially built to communicate with the AS400 through

MQ Series and run the documents through BizTalk rules Engine and make a decision

about the further flow of the documents. Based on the decision the system would either

update AS400 or would send it to Exception Processing. Exception processing is a set

of UI’s which will present documents to the users to make a decision on them.

• Project : CHL Phase II

This system is used for tracking the deficient loans for the CHL lender. Deficient loans

are the loans which are lacking sufficient policy info or borrower info. This system tracks

these loans and sends reminder letters to borrowers asking for the missing information.

If the borrower fails to update the info in a stipulated period of time, Balboa policy will be

force placed on his loan.

• Project: Insurance / Loan Data loading:

It consists of several VB jobs (UI, legacy systems) / C# Services, which deals with

loading of the insurance / loan documents from insurance company / lender, which
