Mortgage Processing
In the Mortgage Processing market QSI's services include the imaging of closed loan files for mortgage originators, the companies that originate and service home loans. In 2006 mortgage originations totaled $1.8 Trillion. The Average loan file was 200 pages. Quintek estimates that companies pay an average of $.10 per page to outsource the processing and scanning of these closed loans, creating a market for the services QSI provides in this space of approximately $260 million annually. Quintek is providing mortgage processing services for the flagship west coast office of a $22 billion lender and division of one of the largest corporations in America.
Healthcare Claims/Records Processing
The Healthcare Claims Processing services QSI provides help major healthcare providers' process claims from customers more effectively and efficiently. Providers are constantly looking for ways to cut costs and provide higher-quality service levels to their customers. In 2004 there were $15 billion of healthcare claims, with each claim averaging $.10. Using those figures as a baseline, the addressable market for services provided by QSI is $1.5 billion annually. Quintek has been processing patient records in the southern California market for various clients and partners for some time. Quintek has recently developed a partnership with Manhattan Data, Inc (MDI) to further penetrate this market.
Accounts Payable Processing
In the Accounts Payable Processing space, QSI's services save customers money by reducing the cost of processing invoices payable to vendors. Last year the estimated revenues for the Fortune 500 totaled $8.2 trillion. Companies that outsource the payables function spend an estimated 0.025% of revenue on A/P Outsourcing. Based on that number, Quintek estimates an addressable market of $1.7 billion for the services provided by QSI. Quintek has installed in-house AP solutions for customers and provides outsourced AP services for a $3 billion dollar multinational water purification and chemicals provider.
