SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Lender Electronic Assessment Portal
(LEAP) is an internet-facing mechanism for organizations who wish to
become approved Federal Housing Administration lenders. For prospective
lenders, custom pages are presented as part of <a href="http://hud.gov">hud.gov</a> o allow the
lender to register interim credentials and respond to information
requests. The only function accessible without authentication is
registration and once registered the only function available is
applying to be an approved lender. Office of Lender Activities and
Program Compliance (OLAPC) staff access LEAP using internet Explorer.
None of the functions are available to OLAPC personnel without
authentication (against the HUD directory) and privileges (as
responsibilities and
[[Page 12372]]
positions). These are enabled through configured definitions within the
Siebel repository and administered data within the Siebel database. For
example, a configured workflow might indicate that when an application
is set to a specific status, an email should be sent to the lender. All
components (except for very specific web pages) are maintained behind
the HUD firewall and controls for securing those components are
documented in the GSS. Records in the LEAP system have not run past its
retention time. Per the Records Inventory Worksheet FY24, the LEAP
Records are held for an indefinite period. Records in this system are
housed in the LEAP database.
