2011 Lexington Solutions & Wentwood Case Study
Like so many asset management firms, Wentwood was using numerous Excel spreadsheets to manage their portfolios. As a small firm, this process worked well when asset management, analysis and data collection were handled for tens of properties. However, as Wentwood's portfolios grew, asset managers were spending more time utilizing multiple spreadsheets for data and conducting spreadsheet-driven calculations and analyses to uncover issues. The firm needed to transition from its in-house tools to a single-source solution in which asset managers could effectively analyze property performance and generate the reports Wentwood is required to ultimately deliver to investors and/or partners.
"Lexington Solutions' tax credit expertise and its unwavering focus on building a performance-based
database to manage data effectively was integral to Wentwood's decision to select Fusion. While
Fusion continues to evolve, its thoughtful design and effective functionality provides a solid platform
for syndicators and/or asset management companies. There is really nothing like it in the market today."
