VMP Mortgage Solutions has unveiled Version 2.5 of its SMART Document viewer, which it is touting as the first tool to demonstrate the three aspects of MISMO-defined Level 1 SMART Docs.The three aspects are: the view tab that shows the actual document populated with data; the data tab that presents the raw data; and the Extensible Markup Language tab that presents the XML construct. (SMART stands for securable, manageable, archivable, retrievable, transferable.) The announcement was made at VMP's user conference in Las Vegas. "We're very happy that they have stepped up to the plate, put in some development dollars for the viewer, and made it available to the industry," conference attendee Gabe Minton, who oversees the Mortgage Industry Standards Maintenance Organization at the Mortgage Bankers Association, told MortgageWire. VMP senior principal Roger Gudobba said VMP has offered the viewer to the MBA's MISMO committee to use as it sees fit. Version 2.5 of the view will be presented in March at the MBA Technology Conference in Phoenix.
