Consolidated Analytics Partners with ShieldHub to Enhance Occupant Safety with Monitored Contractor Criminal Risk Scores

ShieldHub, a criminal background risk scoring and monitoring technology solution for independent contractors, is pleased to announce that it has been selected by Consolidated Analytics as a preferred and accepted background screening solution for its panel of vendors including inspectors, appraisers, property data collectors and real estate professionals. ShieldHub will be providing a portable, living background risk scoring solution that includes integrated digital identity validation, a multi-county background check with continuous monitoring.

“We’re excited to see Consolidated Analytics taking a leadership role in ensuring the safety of their contractor workforce. They recognize like many other brands, the inherent risk when dealing with occupant safety and that it’s essential to provide peace of mind to their customers that they are working with vetted and trusted professionals,” stated Shane Copeland, CEO of ShieldHub. “Consolidated Analytics selected ShieldHub, not just because a continuously monitored ShieldScore is one of the best defenses for occupant protection, but because their vendors will be joining the nearly 100,000 independent contractors that have reduced their background check costs by leveraging unlimited ShieldScore sharing through our robust and growing partner network.”

Consolidated Analytics will engage vendors through their own private branded portal (www.shieldhub.store/ca-usa ) that manages the entire process and provides continuous feedback that identifies potential risk within their contractor panel.

“Ensuring proper background screening, and therefore trust in our process, is an essential part of what we do at Consolidated Analytics.” said Chris McLain, Division President, Valuations. “Occupant safety and property security are our top priorities. We take great care to provide confidence to our clients and site occupants that we have fully vetted the ID and potential criminal risk for anyone we send onsite for an assignment. To achieve this, it is important for our team to obtain a current background check and ID validation. Historically, this process has often required our vendors to purchase multiple background checks per year for each hiring partner. The ShieldScore is sharable with anyone and continuously checked against national crime databases which provides confidence and certainty that our vendors who utilize ShieldHub are qualified.”

ShieldHub is a Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) compliant criminal background-monitoring technology solution that enables a risk composite ShieldScore™ indicator for managing risk while engaging independent contractors. Unlike periodic background checks, ShieldHub includes continuous 24/7 monitoring and alerts when an independent contractor is out of compliance with the client’s risk policy. ShieldHub assigns each user a unique anonymized ShieldID™ (ABC#) that provides partners with evidence of risk compliance and assurance to independent contractors that they have control of limiting the sharing of sensitive personal information with multiple clients or partners. Additionally, since the ShieldID™ number is owned by the individual, for the first-time independent contractors have complete portability to share their score to any ShieldHub partner while avoiding the redundant and costly nature of multiple background checks.
