Who? What?

In an increasingly competitive public records aggregation industry, backgroundchecks.com understood that having the most extensive and accurate collection of data meant a huge edge over the competition. But as a growing company built on a foundation of sales and service, backgroundchecks.com needed a trusted partner to manage its technology operations. Bright Corner delivered a customized Application Management solution that broke through barriers to growth without breaking the bank.

Why Bright Corner?

backgroundchecks.com's relationship with Bright Corner began with an application development project. backgroundchecks.com was facing challenges with the speed and accuracy of its data transformation process and invited Bright Corner to reengineer its back-end technology platform. What resulted was a tremendously improved records processing engine, developed using Microsoft .NET technology, which increased data transformation efficiency by over 25% and today coordinates thousands of search requests instantly from over 200,000,000 records.

What We Did

Following this successful project, Bright Corner worked with backgroundchecks.com to identify bottlenecks in its technology operations and suggest improvements. Each of the bottlenecks traced back to the same root cause: backgroundchecks.com builds and maintains customer relationships - not technical solutions. In order to maintain phenomenal growth, the company needed to focus on its core competency and find a trusted partner to support the back-end technology. backgroundchecks.com's choice for that trusted partner was Bright Corner.

The team is currently supporting the loading (Extract, Transform and Load) of 400+ sources per month averaging an excellent turnaround / refresh time of under 10days. 53 Sex Offender Registries are being refreshed in under 5days of data receipt.

Our data loading experience extends across 450+ unique sources of data that includes SORs, DOCs, AOCs, DPS, District & Municipal Courts and Counties. The team evaluates each source and scripts the transformation of the data from the raw source to the database. This is followed by a rigorous quality assurance process where the data is cleaned to meet with the standards set by the client.

We are also able to acquire specific sources of data through scrape activities including sources not easily available. Our team has acquired over 150 sources of data through custom data scrapes with an emphasis on ensuring critical information like names, date of births, photos, crimes et al are acquired.
