Case Study: PACE Computer Solutions achieves faster, lower-cost, more secure background checks with HireRight

PACE Gets What It Needs with HireRight

PACE Computer Solutions, an IT development and consulting firm of about 100 employees in Columbia, MD, struggled with slow, manual and costly background checks that sometimes took days and ranged from $100–$600 per applicant. HR Manager Dorothy Ortiz faced unclear timelines, delayed reports and even the risk of losing a client because checks weren’t completed on time.

In mid-2011 PACE implemented HireRight Professional, letting applicants enter data online and giving HR a dashboard with real-time status notifications. The change delivered faster criminal checks (often within hours), clearer progress updates, improved data security and lower, more predictable costs—streamlining hiring and preserving project start dates.
