"Since we received WebCheck, our remote offices have not had to hand-calculate manual checks. The time savings and ability to get accurate figures and our employees' current YTD in seconds is a tremendous help. Before WebCheck, the payroll staff was researching and correcting discrepancies from the manual calculation process. Now there is no question as to the tax amounts to be deducted. WebCheck has been a time-saver for everyone."

"It's a good thing we have RBZ&A, I don't know what we'd do without them."

California Yacht Club

California Yacht Club (CYC) was started in 1922 in Los Angeles harbor by a group of dedicated yachtsmen – mostly from the Los Angeles Athletic Club and the rest active in other early yacht clubs of the day. They built a magnificent clubhouse with an anchorage for several hundred sail and power boats in beautiful Marina del Rey, which is the largest manmade small craft harbor in the world.

CYC has members sailing in literally every major regatta in the world. Its 1,250 members range from neophyte “juniors” just gaining their sea legs to Olympic champions.

In January of 2001, the club was chosen to host the Star Class World Championships Regatta. The Star Class is the oldest Olympic class boat race and is a favorite of the world's top sailors. Sailors from around the globe came to Los Angeles to compete in this event.

R.B. Zack & Associates was called upon to work with event coordinators to develop a dynamic website that would effectively share the event with a global audience. The website content had to be updateable by non-technical CYC staff, organize a massive amount of information, and withstand heavy web traffic. RBZ&A first designed a SQL Server database solution and web application the CYC staff could use to upload and maintain images and videos. Then a data-driven website was built that would pull fresh content from the database. The entire project was executed within the agreed upon budget and timeframe. CYC and R.B. Zack & Associates maintain a successful working relationship to this day.  Read more about Star Worlds 2002.

"We were concerned that we couldn't get the quality site that we wanted for the budget we had to work with. RBZ&A really went the extra mile for us without going over budget and turned out a site that we are proud of. I would work with them again in a heartbeat."
- Alex Benson , General Chairman, 2002 Star Class World Championship Regatta
