BS&K and JumpForward Alliance

JumpForward led and innovated the collegiate mobile phone application space by being the first to release its iPhone, Blackberry, and Android native mobile applications. This led to increased college coach recruiting productivity but also provided for unparalleled internal controls by automatically logging phone, text, and e-mails and providing proactive warning messages to prevent violations before they occur.

The next phase of this innovation is the new alliance between JumpForward and Bond, Schoeneck and King, PLLC (BS&K). BS&K brings over 100 combined years of involvement and expertise in NCAA compliance and industry experience.

What does this mean for intercollegiate athletic programs?

The combination of JumpForward’s industry-leading technology solutions and BS&K’s expertise with NCAA compliance rules has created an unrivaled product in the industry. The ability to provide NCAA institutions with best-in-class technologies and compliance expertise is more important than ever due to increased scrutiny on compliance issues.

What is the compliance toolbox?

The Compliance Toolbox software product is designed to centralize the entire reporting and compliance functions for athletics departments. In doing so, it provides unparalleled internal controls, significantly reduces costs associated with overhead, and reduces the risk of costly communication mistakes by providing proactive compliance warning messages to help prevent violations.

With compliance software solutions, how is the quality of the software impacted by the company’s overall compliance experience?

Immensely. Without the proper on campus compliance experience, years of compliance knowledge, and industry leadership, the software compliance solution could neglect critical bylaws or interpretations that could expose your collegiate program. “The BS&K team worked for over a year with the JumpForward team to refine the Toolbox with JumpForward’s industry-leading technology in order to provide the most comprehensive compliance management product on the market” said Mike Glazier, Chair of BS&K’s Collegiate Sports Practice Group. “The Toolbox meets the highest quality standards and provides athletics departments with the level of controls and monitoring necessary in today’s highly regulated environment. We are excited to be part of this solution and look forward to working with JumpForward and NCAA member institutions to implement the Toolbox.”
