Mortgage processing GFE calculation

"The Good faith estimate" (GFE) program was created for calculating the settlement closing costs. It provides all required Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA) information that is required for disclosure. The program is being used by real estate professionals and consumers to estimate total funds needed to buy residential real estate at a given price, interest rate, and term. The program also calculated the total monthly payment regarding principal, interest, taxes, Insurance (PITI).

This tool was developed and installed as an online GFE calculator, where the users will supply the website with information such as sale price, term, down payment, interest rate, taxes, insurance and days of interest. The GFE calculator generates the GFE in a downloadable PDF format which the users can save on their computer.

We developed a LAMP (software bundle), which is an open source web platform consisting of Linux, Apache, MySQL and PHP that runs dynamically on Web sites or servers.

The GFE calculator can be viewed at http://atlantahouses.com/index.php

Sales force automation

Developed inside the framework of an intranet, this application allows distribution of information to employees and a sales force. The intranet application has a front-end where employees can login and access specified content areas based on their level of authorization and an administrative back-end for the site administrator to upload, delete and manage all the front-end information.

This intranet based application was developed using .net technology, and therefore, an ASP.net based solution was created. The code used for this website is C#, and the database used is Microsoft SQL server.

2. Photos/Logos
   Employees can view thumbnails of original photos and download/receive the low or high resolution image for the same thumbnail. The thumbnails are watermarked so they cannot be used without approval from admin. The back-end module provides admin with the ability to approve requests submitted by the employee/s before the employee who has made the request is given access to the high resolution image. Admin has the ability to upload, remove or replace photos.
   
   
3. Sell Sheets
   These are POS materials available in PDF format. Employees can request to receive materials after approval by the admin. Admin uses the back-end module to upload, remove or replace these PDF documents.

   This page includes links to each of the various files and documents available for download by the employees. Admin can use the back-end module to upload any additional documents. These can include power point templates or anything else downloadable that could be used as a resource.
   
   
5. Security

Purchase and Inventory Management

A Materials Management System (MMS) application was created for M/s GEI Industrial Systems Ltd. This program is very user friendly and covers the following areas of operations:

1. Engineering Department
   The engineering department creates a Bill of Materials (BOM) for any work order undertaken by GEI. Each work order has a complete list of materials in terms of their specification and requirement levels.
   
   
2. Materials Department
   The materials department uses the BOM to create sales inquiries and generate a Purchase Order (PO) against the selected suppliers.

The stores can check quantity and specifications as specified in the PO and match it against the actual goods that have been delivered by the supplier.
   
   
4. Accounts Department
   Based on the PO and the entries made by the stores department, the accounts department uses the MMS application to clear payment against the supplier’s invoices.
