The Story

CheckBAC is a company working to prevent the harmful impact of alcohol abuse through its alcohol consumption monitoring products. Those products include the CheckBAC Breathalyzer, a portable, Bluetooth-enabled device that provides accurate alcohol readings and uploads results to a supervisor via the app, and the CheckBAC Drive Module, a vehicle control device that prevents a vehicle from starting unless a breath alcohol test is passed. 

As the company expanded, it encountered challenges with the scalability and maintenance of its existing platform, which had been pieced together by various contractors over a long period, utilizing a wide range of differing technologies. Corrisoft recommended Slingshot to CheckBAC due to our proven ability to solve complex technical challenges.  

Technology: Swift, Java, GCP, Digital Ocean, AWS, Shashido, Twilio, SendGrid, Angular, NoSQL, ScaleGrid, Python
