San Mateo, Calif. —March 12, 2002—Dorado Corporation, the leader in Demand Chain Management for mortgage banking, and HomeBanc Mortgage Corporation today announced a product licensing and service agreement for Dorado PriceMaster™ Web-based product and pricing engine. HomeBanc is one of the largest retail mortgage lenders in the Southeast and is ranked among the top ten on-line lenders in the United States. Dorado PriceMaster will allow HomeBanc to more efficiently administer and distribute program eligibility rules and pricing, enabling HomeBanc’s loan officers to increase the speed and accuracy of product selection for consumers.
Dorado’s Demand Chain Management (DCM) solutions are Internet applications designed to help lenders more efficiently and cost-effectively attract, sell, and retain customers. As one of Dorado’s DCM solutions, PriceMaster helps streamline the mortgage sales cycle by providing accurate, uniform, and timely product and price information.
“In order to streamline and scale operations, we’re phasing out legacy systems wherever we can in favor of more flexible, rapidly deployable Web-based solutions, like those from Dorado,” said HomeBanc Executive Vice President and Chief Information Officer Robert Bennett. “Leveraging the Internet has enabled us to reduce the cost of loan origination while providing better, faster, and more satisfying service to our customers.”
By replacing their existing system with PriceMaster, HomeBanc will eliminate the need to perform the time-consuming and expensive task of daily rate sheet faxing to loan officers.
“We are proud to be part of HomeBanc’s industry-leading commitment to innovate their business by leveraging the Internet,” said Dain Ehring, founder and CEO of Dorado Corporation. “PriceMaster will give HomeBanc a competitive advantage by allowing them to automate pricing and move quickly with new mortgage programs.”
