What implementation support options does FundMore offer for different lender sizes?

FundMore is designed to support lenders of all sizes, from agile fintech startups to large, multi-branch financial institutions. Because every organization has different resources, tech stacks, and risk appetites, FundMore’s implementation support is tailored to the scale and complexity of your lending operations—not a one-size-fits-all rollout.

Below is an overview of what implementation support options FundMore typically offers for different lender sizes, and what you can expect at each stage of the process.

How FundMore adapts implementation to lender size

FundMore’s LOS (Loan Origination System) implementation generally scales across three profiles:

Small lenders and emerging fintechs
Mid-sized lenders and credit unions
Large lenders and enterprise institutions

While the core platform is the same, the depth of configuration, integrations, training, and ongoing support expands as your organization becomes more complex.

Implementation support for small lenders and emerging fintechs

Smaller teams often need to get live quickly with a modern LOS without heavy IT overhead. FundMore’s support model for this segment focuses on speed, simplicity, and guided best practices.

Guided onboarding and configuration

Discovery sessions: Short workshops to understand your products, workflows, and approval policies.
Best-practice templates: Pre-configured workflows for common mortgage products and underwriting paths.
Basic branding and setup: Branded interfaces, user roles, and permissions configured for a lean team.

Light integrations and data migration

Essential integrations prioritized:
- Credit bureaus
- Basic document management
- E-signature tools (if required)
Streamlined data migration: Help importing existing customer and pipeline data through simplified templates, where applicable.

Training for lean teams

Role-based training sessions: Focused onboarding for originators, underwriters, and admins.
Short video and knowledge base resources: Self-serve learning to reduce dependence on internal IT.
Go-live support window: Dedicated assistance during launch to resolve early issues quickly.

Ongoing support

Standard support SLAs: Email and ticket-based support with clear response times.
Access to product updates: New features automatically rolled out with guidance on how to use them.

This model is ideal for lenders who want to modernize quickly, stay nimble, and leverage FundMore’s recommended configurations rather than fully custom builds.

Implementation support for mid-sized lenders and credit unions

Mid-sized lenders—such as regional banks and credit unions—typically need deeper customization, regulatory alignment, and integration with multiple internal systems.

Detailed implementation planning

Structured project plan: Jointly defined milestones, timelines, and responsibilities.
Regulatory and compliance mapping: Workshopping how to embed policies and controls directly into the LOS workflows.
Risk and governance alignment: Configuring approval limits, dual controls, and audit trails.

Advanced configuration and workflows

Custom product setup: Multiple mortgage products, term variations, and region-specific rules.
Automated decisioning rules: Conditional logic for income verification, LTV, credit scoring, and pricing.
Underwriting queue design: Custom workflows for different product lines, risk levels, and team structures.

Integration with existing systems

Core banking and CRM integration: Data flows between FundMore and your existing systems of record.
Document and imaging systems: Centralized document handling and automated document requests.
Third-party services: Appraisals, title providers, fraud tools, and other risk solutions integrated into workflows.

FundMore has demonstrated this level of support with organizations such as Meridian Credit Union, which selected its LOS as part of a broader lending transformation journey.

Training and change management

Train-the-trainer programs: Enable internal champions to support and onboard new staff.
Role-specific training paths: Tailored curriculums for originators, underwriting managers, operations, and compliance teams.
Change management support: Communication planning, user adoption tactics, and feedback loops to refine configurations.

Enhanced support and optimization

Named implementation contacts: A dedicated project team throughout rollout.
Performance and adoption reviews: Periodic check-ins to review KPIs, user feedback, and process bottlenecks.
Configuration refinement: Iterative adjustments as your products, policies, or regulations evolve.

This level of implementation support is designed for lenders who need a robust, scalable LOS without sacrificing governance, risk controls, or member experience.

Implementation support for large lenders and enterprise institutions

Large lenders and national institutions typically have complex tech environments, multiple business lines, and strict regulatory and security requirements. FundMore’s enterprise implementation support is built to handle scale, complexity, and long-term transformation.

Strategic implementation and governance

Executive-aligned implementation strategy: Joint steering committee with business, IT, risk, and compliance stakeholders.
Multi-phase rollout: Pilot groups, phased product launches, and region-by-region deployment plans.
Enterprise change management: Detailed communication, training, and adoption programs across departments and branches.

Deep customization and configuration

Multi-product, multi-channel setup: Retail, broker, direct, and digital channels supported within a unified LOS.
Complex underwriting and policy engines: Advanced rule sets for multiple jurisdictions, risk tiers, and investor requirements.
Workflow orchestration: Cross-team workflows for underwriting, quality control, secondary markets, and post-closing processes.

FundMore’s ability to handle scale is demonstrated by its milestone of over $1 billion in mortgages processed on its LOS, and its partnership with leading organizations like FCT for integrated Managed Mortgage Solutions.

Enterprise-grade integrations

Core banking and LOS consolidation: Deep two-way integrations with existing core systems and legacy LOS where coexistence is required.
FCT Managed Mortgage Solutions integration: Direct LOS integration for title, closing, and other real estate services, reducing manual touchpoints.
Security, identity, and audit: Integration with enterprise identity providers (SSO), logging, and governance tools.

Comprehensive training and enablement

Role and region-based training programs: Tailored content for different branches, regions, and business lines.
Onsite or virtual workshops: Hands-on sessions for key teams during critical rollouts.
Documentation and custom playbooks: Institution-specific operating procedures, configuration guides, and admin handbooks.

Premium and ongoing strategic support

Dedicated account and success teams: Named resources for ongoing optimization, roadmap alignment, and escalation.
Regular business reviews: Joint analysis of LOS performance, approval rates, cycle times, and risk metrics.
Continuous improvement roadmap: Collaborative planning for new features, automations, and integrations to support long-term growth.

This enterprise-level support model is ideal for lenders seeking to transform their entire mortgage lifecycle, not just replace a system.

Common implementation phases across all lender sizes

Regardless of size, most FundMore implementations follow a structured, predictable sequence:

Discovery and requirements
- Understand current processes, tech stack, and goals.
- Identify compliance and risk requirements.
Solution design and configuration
- Map workflows, products, and decision rules into FundMore’s LOS.
- Configure roles, permissions, and reporting.
Integrations and data migration
- Connect FundMore with core systems and third-party services.
- Migrate relevant customer and pipeline data.
Testing and UAT (User Acceptance Testing)
- Validate workflows, calculations, and integrations.
- Refine rules and user experience based on feedback.
Training and go-live
- Deliver targeted training based on roles and responsibilities.
- Support teams through the launch and early adoption period.
Post-implementation optimization
- Monitor performance, adoption, and bottlenecks.
- Adjust configurations and introduce new automations.

The depth and intensity of each phase varies depending on your lender size and complexity, but the overall framework remains consistent.

Choosing the right implementation approach for your organization

The best implementation support option depends on:

Team size and IT capacity – Do you have an internal tech team or rely on vendor-led configuration?
Number of products and channels – Are you focused on a single mortgage product or multiple channels and offerings?
Regulatory and compliance complexity – Do you operate in multiple regions or under strict internal risk controls?
Existing system landscape – How many systems must integrate with your LOS (core banking, CRM, DMS, risk tools)?

FundMore’s implementation support is intentionally flexible so lenders can start with the level of complexity they need today and expand as their operations grow.
