Project Overview:
The purpose of this competitive bidding event ("Event") is for JPMC to obtain
information and bids from suppliers interested in performing property
inspection, preservation, violation resolution, and registration services
("Services") on pre-foreclosed, foreclosed and REO property serviced by JPMC.
Today Chase has two (2) suppliers servicing pre-foreclosure and foreclosed
property and six (6) suppliers supporting REO property. At the conclusion of this
Event, JPMC will implement a cradle to grave service model and intends to
select between two (2) to four (4) suppliers capable of servicing properties in all
fifty states.

Project Scope

Services for all Investors will be performed according to each Investor's published servicing standards.

JPMC requires the supplier to follow Fannie Mae's published servicing standards

Suppliers are financially responsible for all servicing errors, as determined by the Investor

Event consists of a two phase approach
1) Pre-Bid (6/5) - In the Pre-Bid portion, suppliers are required to answer a number of questions and to submit their initial bid
services that make up the six (6) service lots ("Lots").
for each of the 27
 Responses to the pre-bid component will be used to determine which suppliers are qualified to participate in the Competitive Bid/Reverse Auction
portion of the event.
2) Live online Competitive Bid event
 In the Competitive Bid portion, suppliers will have the opportunity to compete against other companies to improve their bids for each Lot when they
compare their bid to the other bids submitted.
 The auction will be used to determine a 'Market Price' for each of the 27 services contained within the Lots. The Market Prices will be used for all
Private Investors and Bank-owned property.
 Further negotiation may take place after the auction to finalize a market “standard” price for each service among the selected suppliers.

Volumes stated are representative of past volume and not guarantee of future volume for any period of time. Furthermore, volumes will be split among
selected suppliers.

Market Price for Inspections will be used for all Investors.

Fees: The fees payable for all other services not identified in the Lots will be either a) per an Investor’s published allowable fee schedule, b) an approved
quote by the Investor or c) an approved quote by JPMC.

JPMC will initially assign properties to the selected Suppliers by State. Over the following 24 to 36 months, JPMC is implementing a new system which
will have the ability to assign properties via a check digit, meaning suppliers will be required to service properties in all 50 states.
In addition to this competitive bidding event, selected candidate suppliers will be required to complete the following prior to being award business: 1) Sign the
attached Master Agreement ("Master") or if a Master Agreement had been previous signed, sign an amendment to the Master Agreement to incorporate terms
similar to those in the attached Master Agreement, if necessary.
2) Sign the attached Services Schedule ("Schedule"), as is without changes. 3)Complete JPMC’s Information Technology Risk Assessment. 4)
Complete JPMC’s Operational Risk Assessment.

Cooper-CitiWest will leverage Wingspan’s compliance division in executing
regulatory compliance. We have a dedicated team of professionals who manage all
existing investor and regulatory guidelines related to preservation services. With
over 35,000 municipalities and townships throughout the United States, We work
diligently within our proprietary technology platform to proactively identify hightouch areas by volume, population, ordinance, and partner support.
- We rely on our extensive network of “boots on the ground” real estate
professionals, contractors, inspectors, and attorneys to stay close to local media
and government fluctuations to any currently tracked regulation
- We manage key areas of current or future volume by conducting daily
outreach to building inspectors, code officers, and local officials as questions or
variances in regulation arise
- Municipal websites are reviewed regularly (where applicable) to extract vital
data related to building and general code, upcoming potential changes in
guidelines and/or personal, and identified issues requiring escalated
review/research.

- We work closely with MERS (Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems) as
well as internal data management and reporting to stay up to date on vacant

our RM shall notify our General Counsel (GC) of the potential claim. The GC shall
reach out to the AM designated by the other Party to attempt to negotiate the

of the alleged servicing error and make recommendations to the company Principals
as to the best course of resolution. If it is established that loss, liabilities, damages,

consistently and poor
performance is dealt with
as needed?
All sub-contractors are held strictly to the quality of their performance. Failure to
meet or exceed expectations will result in temporary or permanent work
assignment. Due to the vast number of required high performing sub-contractors in
specific areas, the Procurement team continually conducts vetting and
establishment of new partnerships to assure during any corrective action all client
business can proceed as needed.
All sub-contractors are measured based on multiple levels of quality control
encompassing all vital areas of work performed:
- Timeline management
- Photo receipt (timeliness, volume and quality)
- Summary receipt (detail and professionalism)
- Work Performed (timeliness, specific service and overall property assessment)
Preservation scorecards are customized to fit each client’s needs, as well as
including up to date performance monitoring of all key metrics for work performed.
Health and safety related services, as well as all potential code violation and/or
property degradation related activity is separated on each scorecard for additional
escalated review by QC supervisor and compiling of data.
We understand the diverse and often changing climate surrounding investor,
municipality, state, and federal preservation and maintenance guidelines. By
utilizing dedicated in-house resources, industry leading technology, and
uncompromising attention to proactively addressing performance, we offer clients
and partners significant transparency into quality control.
To assure success, designated specific staff focuses on local/federal compliance
identification through multiple methods. This information is reviewed and
documented within a proprietary platform and efficiently implemented throughout
operations. Upon any data point integration, effective communication is delivered
both internally and externally. Updates or changes pertaining to any preservation
services performed are relayed to each external sub-contractor individually and with
required review and acceptance. In addition, monthly web based conferences are

Wingspan has a proven track record of successful large scale deployments, in both
“build” and “buy” scenarios:
In 2012, Wingspan recruited, trained and deployed almost 700 professionals for a
Top 4 mortgage servicer project in less than eight weeks. This rapid deployment
was completed ahead of schedule and directly supported our clients’ remediation of
Loss Mitigation pipelines to lift a regulatory mandate.
In 2013, Wingspan acquired and integrated a full mortgage-servicing operations
facility with over 400 personnel from a JP Morgan Chase. This successful
absorption delivered a seamless transition as well as immediate access to best-inclass capabilities and a variable cost/capacity model for JP Morgan Chase.
Wingspan’s unrelenting focus on quality, process controls, and performance
management is the core foundation for every service we provide. This focus is
inherent and clearly visible in our how our management teams and production staff
apply rigorous, embedded, inline QA methodologies to every process.
Our culture is built to exceed KPIs and SLAs; We have incorporated a weekly
review of LOB scorecards along with regularly scheduled LOB management
meetings to ensure the work meets or exceeds both performance and quality
criteria.

We would require additional human resources to be hired and trained for our 8
locations:
- 5 Property Management Supervisors
- 50 to 75 (depending on JPMC’s technology platform) property managers to assign

- 2 procurement analysts to recruit and train additional subcontractors
