Sterling's enhanced CourtDirect^SM is our state-of-the-art proprietary technology platform which electronically accesses primary source records from thousands of Federal, state and local courts to conduct background checks for employment worldwide.

Today, most courthouse data for background screening is retrieved by individuals, physically going to courthouses. With its breakthrough platform, Sterling has successfully digitized and integrated primary source data from hundreds of U.S. court jurisdictions.

By eliminating human intervention from the process, and creating direct pipelines of information from nationwide courthouses to Sterling, CourtDirect^SM allows Sterling to offer:

• More accurate background checks
• Ability to search more jurisdictions with less effort and time
• Total integration of all levels of federal, state and local data
• Turnaround times more than 50% faster than the rest of the industry
