The purpose of the CheckBAC remote alcohol monitoring app is to help courts monitor alcohol consumption and GPS location of court-ordered DUI participants and family law participants. The platform consists of a mobile app for DUI participant devices and a management portal that can be accessed by court officials, probation officers, and monitoring partners. The app works with a Bluetooth breathalyzer that the participant uses to determine their Breath Alcohol Content(BAC). https://checkbacbusiness.com/how-it-works/

Here’s how it works:
• Each user must have an iPhone or Android phone.
• The user must have access to the Android Store to download the

CheckBAC mobile application.
• The user is provided an approved Bluetooth breathalyzer, compatible with the CheckBAC solution. The device may be purchased by the individual or provided by your business or organization.
• Enter each user’s username and password
• BAC tolerances for court-mandated probation are a zero-tolerance policy.
• Using the Management Portal (from a desktop, laptop, or mobile device), schedule automated testing intervals based on week, day, and time. You can also initiate random, on-demand tests at your discretion.
• Once prompted for a test via an SMS message, users open the CheckBAC mobile application on their phone and log in.
• The user then follows a set of simple instructions. Holding their mobile phone with the screen facing towards their face, they are prompted to blow into their breathalyzer. Simultaneously, a video window records their activity and validates their identity. The process takes only a few seconds and is complete when the status bar is filled.
• The test results are instantly streamed to the CheckBAC Management Portal, along with audio and GPS data for the location. Test failures are immediately flagged and can be pushed as SMS text messages to your mobile device – allowing you to quickly take action to ground aircrew, pull drivers, or alert probation officers.

Everyone using the CheckBAC App is under a court order to do so. They must comply with all parameters set by the court, or assigned monitoring agency.
