Establish and implement an effective quality control process to prevent or detect model processing errors cited in our report and prevent other similar model processing errors in the future.

Reevaluate FHA’s existing model documentation for single-family, HECM, and multifamily models to determine whether their current state is acceptable, so that it provides the intended users a thorough understanding of how the model works and also allows new users to assume responsibility for the model’s use (operational procedures). Based on this review, FHA should make adjustments as needed to the model documentation. At a minimum, these adjustments should include appropriate actions taken to address model documentation deficiencies cited in our report.

Review FHA’s existing model coding for single-family, HECM, and multifamily models and make necessary changes to make them consistent with industry’s best practices in model coding. At a minimum, FHA should implement actions to address model coding deficiencies cited in our report.
