Systems Design and Integration

GREAT DIVIDE INVESTMENTS LLC in Lafayette, Colorado builds and operates the dividing lines that keep your platforms, data and obligations moving in the right direction.

Portfolio Systems Architecture

The skeleton of your investment operation, drawn to survey-grade precision before a single component is assembled.

We begin any engagement by mapping the full watershed of your portfolio technology: order entry and execution, position and cash accounting, asset classes, entity structures, tax lots and the reporting surfaces that rest on top. Only when that map is agreed do we propose an architecture.

  • Logical and physical reference designs for portfolio platforms
  • Entity hierarchy and bookkeeping topology design
  • Valuation and P&L engine specification and review
  • Integration points with custodians, administrators and venues
  • Design governance, option analysis and decision records

Market Data Platform Integration

One trusted current of market data, reconciled and delivered to every consumer at the same measured rate.

Inconsistent market data is the quietest kind of failure. We unify real time price feeds, reference data, corporate actions, calendars and derived instrument series behind a resilient platform that absorbs peaks and reports gaps rather than hiding them.

  • Vendor feed onboarding and normalisation
  • Entitlement, permission and access auditing
  • Reference and corporate action master curation
  • Latency, integrity and continuity monitoring
  • Disaster recovery failover for live streams

Custom Analytics Development

Analytics built as maintained products, not one off reports left to erode with every changing requirement.

Your team needs answers that can be reproduced by an auditor next quarter and edited by an analyst next year. We build custom analytics as controlled software: versioned logic, documented assumptions, reproducible outputs and interfaces your operators actually use.

  • Risk adjusted performance and attribution engines
  • Cash flow and ladder analytics for allocations
  • Facility and exception dashboards
  • Batch scheduling, alerting and output delivery
  • Documentation and model validation support

Fund Flow Data Pipelines

Capital movement data is only useful when every dollar can be traced from source to ledger without a single leak.

Investments, redemptions, transfers and fees leave a trail across custody and settlement systems. Our pipelines clean, reconcile and stage this flow so that cash balances, positions and admin records all agree down to the cent at any point in the day.

  • Ingestion of investor, custody and ledger sources
  • Idempotent replay and watermark tracking
  • Break and suspense management workflows
  • Proven data lineage for every transformed field
  • End of day, intraday and period close reconciliation

Risk and Compliance Engineering

Policy encoded into code, so the boundary between permitted and denied is explicit, current and provable.

Regulatory obligation does not pause for software releases. We engineer limits monitoring, approval routing, restricted lists, regulatory reporting and immutable audit trails as first class systems, tested the way a flood channel tests its banks before the spring thaw.

  • Limits and threshold monitoring with escalation
  • Regulatory reporting data assembly and delivery
  • Restricted and watch list screening integration
  • Immutable, queryable audit logging
  • Change control and evidence management

Managed Operations and Support

A standing watch after launch, so the instrument never stops reporting and the team is never alone at midnight.

The most elegant architecture still needs someone to read the gauge. Our operations desks supervise scheduled jobs, reconcile their output, answer incidents by priority and keep runbooks and documentation aligned with reality, year after year.

  • Business hours and extended monitoring coverage
  • Incident response with clear ownership
  • Job success, timing and anomaly review
  • Patch, housekeeping and lifecycle upkeep
  • Quarterly health summaries and roadmaps

Our Delivery Process

Every engagement follows the same five stages, from first survey to standing watch.

Survey

We document the current state, dependencies and constraints as a written baseline.

Charter

A crisp scope, architecture choice and acceptance criteria are agreed before building.

Engineer

We build in tested increments with visible progress and shared code review.

Instrument

Monitoring, reconciliation and runbooks are installed before go live.

Stand Watch

We remain on call to operate, tune and extend the system over its life.

Begin with a Survey

Tell the engineering desk about your current systems, and we will chart the first practical step across the divide at no initial cost.
