The lending systems hold the transaction. The work starts when the evidence does not line up.

Your LOS holds the deal, the ABL platform the borrowing base, the document system the executed package and email the answers from borrowers, counsel and title parties. The expensive work begins when the approval, the documents, the reporting or the collateral data disagree—and a specialist has to reconstruct the case before anyone can clear, waive or fund.

Title and UCC evidence, insurance certificates, appraisals, entity documents and legal language are owned by different parties and arrive through different channels. The closer keeps the checklist, chases each item and decides what genuinely satisfies the approval—while the funding date waits. Each item has to be matched back to the exact approval language before the file can move. A missed condition becomes a post-close exception or a lien-perfection problem. A premature clear becomes a credit decision nobody made. Either way, the gap surfaces weeks later in audit or remediation.

CLOSING & LOAN OPERATIONS

Turn the approved deal into a clear-to-close decision with every condition evidenced.

A credit approval is complete, but the transaction is not ready to fund. Title or UCC evidence may still be outstanding; insurance, appraisal, entity documents or legal language may not satisfy the approved conditions; and counsel, the borrower and internal operations each hold part of the answer.

Built around the LOS, ABL and factoring systems you already run.

Orcaworks treats your loan-origination system, ABL or factoring platform, servicing core, document stack, lien and verification specialists and shared inboxes as the authoritative sources—and writes back only through permitted, configured interfaces. Read and write access is confirmed per system during discovery, not assumed.

HOW ORCAWORKS FITS

Do the case work the LOS, ABL and factoring systems leave open.

Orcaworks is not another LOS, borrowing-base engine, factoring platform, spreading tool or e-signature product. It sits above the installed estate and works the exceptions that remain when approvals, documents, reporting and collateral data do not line up.

YOUR SYSTEMS STAY AUTHORITATIVE

LOS, ABL and FMS remain the systems of record.

The LOS owns the deal, the ABL platform the availability, the FMS the receivable. Orcaworks works the case around them and writes back only the authorized disposition.

A CASE AROUND THE CREDIT OBJECT

Every approval, BBC, covenant and invoice gets its evidence in one place.

The title email beside the closing condition. The debtor response beside the flagged invoice. Orcaworks links each fact to its source and requests what is missing.

NAMED DECISION OWNERS

Closers, collateral analysts and credit officers keep the consequential calls.

Orcaworks assembles, compares and requests within facility and policy rules. Loan operations clears to close, the credit officer decides the waiver, collateral authority approves the exception.

AUDIT THE DECISION

Every cleared condition and waiver keeps its evidence and authority.

Evidence used, follow-up sent, rule applied, who decided, what changed in the system—retained per case so credit, compliance and audit can reconstruct why the decision was made.

Specialty Commercial Lending & Finance — Executive Brief

Why closing, covenant and reconciliation work persists after the LOS and ABL platform are in place; the four highest-priority workflows; and how to baseline approval-to-clear-to-close before setting a target.

USE-CASE GUIDE

Specialty Commercial Lending & Finance — Use-Case Guide

All eight applications in operating detail: trigger, evidence, decision owner, permitted system action, incumbent boundary and workflow metric for closing, booking reconciliation, covenant, renewal, portfolio, borrowing-base, deal-package and factoring cases.

GET STARTED

Bring us one closing queue. Approval-to-clear-to-close is the usual first measure.

Start with a closing where conditions are spread across the LOS, title, insurance and email. We’ll baseline approval-to-clear-to-close time and post-close exceptions, then define the governed workflow with a clear end state.
