Blueberry Systems is rich in ‘mortgage DNA.’ Our roots are in mortgage banking. Our principals have been nationally recognized as successful lenders and lender partners. As mortgage banking professionals, we are focused on improving the lives and bottom-line of those in our industry. We are more than a vendor. We are a partner invested in your success.
We believe the best ideas come from mortgage professionals, not technologists. We are everywhere from the field to the boardroom to get the best ideas directly from where they matter most – making it about the lender. Not the vendor.
Many large, enterprise-scale systems are often built on spec for new clients; they are unnecessarily over-customized. These systems need significant development time and are unwieldy to implement – leading to excessive costs and overruns.
Mortgage Banking Magazine reports that 78% of implementations are either late, over-budget or failed to meet expectations while 11% are cancelled or abandoned altogether. Origination systems are expensive, but the total cost isn’t just what you will pay the vendor. It’s also the 3x cost of the software that is tied up in the opportunity costs, internal employee costs, and the direct labor associated with implementing a new system. The risks of a failed implementation are staggering, but as an originator, you can’t stand idly by.
At Blueberry Systems, our functionality is data driven, not hard-coded. In other words, our enterprise LOS, RELAY™, is a highly configurable system that can simply be modified for every unique lender rather than re-invented each time. Coupled with our considerable mortgage DNA, we have an extensive library of best practices to combine with your unique business process to rapidly implement your new LOS.
In today’s frenzied and unpredictable world of mortgage banking, flexibility and adaptability are valuable attributes. To ensure command of both, Blueberry Systems offers our Model Office Program. Whether it is growing production, improving operational efficiency, or navigating the maze of new regulation, each month during the first year and quarterly thereafter, we will work with your team on-site to help identify challenges and strategic opportunities, provide visibility to upcoming enhancements and collaborate with you to shape the future of the platform.
This kind of proximity is critical to ensuring we have direct visibility to your needs and aspirations. It holds us to a higher level of accountability to you. It ensures a smoother implementation, greater operational efficiencies, and is essential to a strong and lasting relationship.
Blueberry Systems’ ground-breaking Patent Pending technology combines unrelated systems and applications into one common user experience. It is this technology that enables RELAY to make major gains in data integrity and workflow efficiencies.
Simply put, RELAY envelops an application and makes it intrinsic to another unrelated application or platform. Using common business processes and a single user interface (UI), corporate level business rules and workflows are applied across the entire production process. Unlike a traditional middleware or LOS that only integrates data transfers between applications, RELAY presents the first industry option to integrate functionality and workflow as well.
In the end, RELAY creates economies of scale in the production process by allowing the most effective and efficient technologies to collaborate within a single workflow, increasing production potential while lowering technology and overhead costs, thereby lowering the cost per loan.
