In last night’s Foreclosurepedia Podcast, #Foreclosurepedia announces a Complete Mortgage Field Services Industry Content Management System (CMS) known as IKARUS. We additionally sit down with Bret Douglas, Founder and Owner of Team Ironclad, and discuss the need for a Universal Work Order; an Industry which is technologically disadvantaged; and the fact that #Foreclosurepedia is liaising with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) to accredit an Industry Glossary of Terms under ISO 9001:2008.
Foreclosurepedia is currently working with several National Association of Mortgage Field Services (NAMFS) Rank and File to implement a complete Industry CMS Platform. This platform includes: properly hooks the Financial Institution or Management’s API Code to create the Work Order Life Cycle (WOLC); encryption levels which rival those in the Industry now; includes a mobile platform for the delivery of work orders to and from the Platform; allows for encrypted video 360 of the asset; encrypted and archived email, video and instant messaging; allows for an infinite form creation cycle including the ability to track Clients, Vendors and Property Assets for third party remarketability; and much, much more.
We have pioneered and implemented a full-featured, web-based, multilingual (40+ languages), tightly integrated, all-in-one Wiki+CMS+Groupware, Free Source Software (GNU/LGPL), using PHP, MySQL, Zend Framework, jQuery and Smarty. It can be used to create all kinds of Web applications, sites, portals, knowledge base, intranets, and extranets.
It is the Open Source Web Application with the most built-in features. Highly configurable and modular, all features are optional and administered via a web-based interface.
Major features include a wiki engine, news articles, discussion forums, newsletters, blogs, file galleries, bug and issue trackers (form generator), polls/surveys and quizzes, banner management system, calendar, maps, mobile , RSS feeds, category system, tags, an advanced theming engine, spreadsheet, drawings, inter-user messaging, menus, advanced permission system for users and groups, search engine, external authentication, etc.

Is The Platform Tried and True?
#Foreclosurepedia actively engages the Platform Community and deals directly with the Lead Developers whom created that which we build upon. To date, over ONE MILLION DOWNLOADS HAVE OCCURRED. I don’t think Lee Mertins can boast that! 😉 The fact of the matter is that the ISTAR Clear Base operates upon the same source code as we are rolling out to the Mortgage Field Services Industry.
Cost To Develop and Savings To You
In the past, these types of systems were placed in the millions of dollars. Today, we roll out pricing at the Enterprise Client Level at around $125K and the updates are free. The price for Labor rolls in at under two thousand dollars. Did I forget to mention the granular permission based settings allowing everyone in the Network to query pertinent data? 😉 With over two million lines of code and a code commit every two hours, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year the reality is that no one AND I MEAN NO ONE INCLUDING THE FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS OR MICROSOFT ITSELF can compete with that which #Foreclosurepedia has rolled out!
