SAN DIEGO /California Newswire/ — 1st Advantage Mortgage, DocuTech and Del Mar DataTrac (DMD) have been named Mortgage Technology magazine’s Synergy Award finalists, recognizing “technology initiatives and alliances that show exemplary interoperability in a production setting to advance the cause of automation and e-commerce,” according to DMD. The three companies were chosen as finalists because of 1st Advantage’s ability to reduce its time and costs associated with processing closing documents by leveraging the integration between DataTrac®, DMD’s leading back-office hub for lenders and ConformX, DocuTech’s Web-based solution for creating compliant closing documents. The integration utilizes DMD’s Vendor Service Platform 2.0 (VSP 2.0), a browser-based extension to DataTrac that enables seamless two-way integrations with vendor systems.

“True synergy exists when multiple software systems work so well that users cannot tell the difference between them,” said Mike Grego, COO of 1st Advantage Mortgage. The integration between DataTrac and ConformX enables us to process our closing documents faster, more efficiently and more accurately than ever before.”

“Our vendor service platform was created to give lenders access to the industry’s best-of-breed service providers without juggling multiple software programs,” said Rob Katz, president of DMD. “1st Advantage’s progressive approach to technology extends this synergy further by combining its culture of efficiency with a seamless technology integration.”

“All too often lenders look at documents as a commodity that can be settled by price,” said Ty Jenkins, CEO and founder of DocuTech. “The integration between Del Mar DataTrac and 1st Advantage shows that having guaranteed document compliance and a seamless workflow can increase volume and margins by reducing the costs and time spent on closing docs.”
