Xamin and PSC Group Design PPP Loan Process Platform to Accelerate SBA Loan Processing and Forgiveness

New, brandable PPP loan process platform automates application and forgiveness submission workflows to streamline institutions’ operations

CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Xamin, a leading provider of managed IT services for highly regulated and reputation-sensitive companies, announced today its partnership with PSC Group, a professional services and information technology consulting firm, to create a new Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan process platform, aimed to help financial institutions streamline and accelerate the processing of applications and facilitate the forgiveness of funds.

After facing the initial challenges that came with the PPP application process, business owners and financial institutions will soon face the next step – loan forgiveness. The U.S. Department of the Treasury has provided guidelines, however, there will still likely be challenges.

According to a recent survey from Cornerstone and Autobooks, almost half of small businesses between $100,000 and $50 million in revenue still rely on spreadsheets for their accounting, and 10 percent of businesses with less than $1 million in revenue have absolutely no technology to support their accounting efforts. Tracking “forgivable” expenses will be difficult for these businesses. Financial institutions will also likely face challenges, from servicing the non-forgiven portions of loans to debt categorization, potential audits and even customer service challenges, according to an article in Forbes.

To streamline both the application and forgiveness processes of these loans, Xamin and PSC Group leveraged its industry expertise as well as input from bank partners to create a customizable platform, specific to PPP loans. Owned by the bank, the platform provides the institution with a customizable and brandable front-end form for PPP loan applications and forgiveness. The new platform also utilizes Microsoft Office 365 SharePoint for file storage and Nintex for Workflow Management, which are both SOC certified to ensure the privacy and security of the small business customer’s data while also ensuring regulatory compliance for the institution.

“We know small businesses are depending on these lifeline loans to survive and with the volume of loans to be processed coupled with operational challenges, it is critical to ensure that the SBA loan process is quick and accurate,” said Nate Pave, Business Development Manager at PSC Group, LLC. “Our team is proud to partner with Xamin, delivering the secure, compliant solution needed to streamline SBA loan and forgiveness processing at financial institutions.”

“With continued demand and talks of a third round of SBA PPP loans, the platform will not only streamline the forgiveness process, but accelerate the application process for small businesses still in need of funding,” said Jonathan Smith, CEO at Xamin. “Our new platform significantly reduces the time from application to eTran submission by automating and simplifying the documentation collection and submission process for financial institutions.”

Smith continued, “With the end-to-end security powered by SOC certified vendors – Nintex, Adobe Sign and Microsoft Office 365 SharePoint – our SOC certified team is confident the security and privacy of an institution’s data is well protected.”
