Flex-Check
For state agency directors running background check operations at scale
One platform.
Every check you run.
Flex-Check handles every background check function your state runs — firearms, fingerprints, name and DOB, RAP Back, expungements, dispositions — through a single interface configured to your process.
The Problem
The background check operation is running on infrastructure that wasn’t built for what it’s being asked to do.
State background check operations span multiple business functions — firearms, fingerprints, expungements, dispositions — each with its own workflow and rules, often on legacy systems that don’t talk to each other. Training staff and keeping pace with changing statutes consumes time that should go toward the work itself.
Supervisors can’t see across the full operation. Administrators spend hours on configuration that should take minutes. And nobody has a clear path to fixing it without a rip-and-replace that costs years and millions. Background checks are a public safety obligation — when the system running them is slow and fragmented, that obligation fails.
Purpose-built for CJIS. Proven across 11 states.
The only platform that covers every background check function your agency runs.
Flex-Check is not a generic case management system pointed at criminal justice. It is the only platform built from the ground up for this domain, with 30 years of CJIS institutional knowledge embedded in every workflow. States adopting Flex-Check are buying a platform that already knows their domain and adapts to their specific business rules.
Deployed across 11 states, processed over 5 million transactions in 2025
Covers firearms, fingerprint screening, name and DOB, RAP Back, expungements, and dispositions
Configurable to each state’s specific workflows with minimal custom development
One interface for all business units, reducing cross-training time and administration
Every module your operation needs
Six modules.
One consistent platform.
01
Flex-Check Firearms
Automates the full firearm purchase background check from dealer submission to decision. Runs NICS, state CCH, and any state-mandated queries, adjudicates the result, and returns an approval or denial.
02
Flex-Check Fingerprints
Manages fingerprint-based background checks for employment, licensing, and other statutory screening. An automated adjudication engine processes results from multiple data sources.
03
Flex-Check Name & DOB
Secure, self-service access to state criminal history for the public and authorized third parties, in compliance with public records laws. Customer management, fee collection, encrypted delivery, and batch uploads.
04
Flex-Check RAP Back
Continuous criminal history monitoring for enrolled individuals. Subscribing agencies are notified in real time when new activity is reported, eliminating annual re-fingerprinting.
05
Flex-Check Dispositions
Coordinates disposition entry between court clerks and repository staff through a secure portal. Automates notifications, tracks updates, and maintains a full audit trail.
06
Flex-Check Expungements
Coordinates and automates the expungement process between courts and repository staff, with a full audit trail and electronic signature for judges to sign orders digitally.
How It Works
Map your process. Configure the platform. Keep your existing infrastructure.
01
TSC maps your state’s existing background check workflows across every active business function: firearms, fingerprints, expungements, dispositions, and beyond.
02
Flex-Check is configured to mirror your specific workflows, approval steps, response rules, and integration points. The platform adapts to your process, not the other way around.
03
Flex-Check connects to your existing message switch, fingerprint vendor, court systems, and financial systems through standard APIs. Your surrounding infrastructure stays in place.
The Cost of Waiting
Every year on a legacy system is another year of inconsistent decisions and an operation harder to manage than it needs to be.
Staff learning different interfaces for different business functions, consuming training time that should go toward case work.
The Outcome
One system. Every check. Running at the speed your operation demands.
States running Flex-Check process every background check function, from a firearms instant check to a fingerprint-based teacher screening, through a single, consistent platform. Staff learn one system across every business unit. Supervisors have a unified view. Configuration changes are administrative, not developmental. The platform grows with the state without a new procurement or a new learning curve.
