Responding to the NCSC Staffing Crisis Report

Courts Can't Hire Their Way Out of the Staffing Crisis. But They Can Build Their Way Out.

The National Center for State Courts confirms what court leaders already know: the positions that produce the court record are the hardest to fill and the first to create operational risk when they go vacant. TheRecordXchange® was built to solve that problem.

Do the Math

What does it cost your court to post a position for 60 days, interview three rounds, onboard someone for 90 days, and lose them 18 months later? National research puts the cost of replacing one employee at 50–200% of their annual salary.

TRX costs less than one FTE.

And it doesn't quit, doesn't call in sick, doesn't need 90 days of onboarding, and doesn't take institutional knowledge with it when it leaves.
