How we verify agencies

Anyone can make a website. Before an agency can see a single requirement on FacilityHub, a person on our team has called them and checked their papers.

The process

Five steps before the Verified badge

  1. 1

    Application

    The agency tells us who they are, what they offer and where, and uploads licences and registrations. Documents are stored privately — only our verification team can open them.

  2. 2

    A call with the owner

    We call the agency, confirm the owner and contact person, and check the phone and WhatsApp numbers are theirs.

  3. 3

    Document review

    Each document is reviewed by a person and marked accepted or rejected with a reason. For security agencies, the PSARA licence state and expiry date are recorded.

  4. 4

    References and track record

    We look at years in business, staff on payroll and current clients, and call references where given.

  5. 5

    Approval

    Only then does the agency go live with the Verified badge. Until approval it can't see or quote on any requirement.

What we check

Every agency is verified by a person, not a form

An agency gets the “FacilityHub Verified” badge only after our team has checked it. Until then it can't see or quote on any requirement.

  • Owner and phone, by call

    We speak to the agency and confirm the contact person, phone and WhatsApp before anything else.

  • PSARA licence for security

    Private security agencies must hold a PSARA licence for the state. We check the licence, the state and the validity date.

  • Registrations

    GST, PAN and company or partnership papers — so you're dealing with a real, registered business.

  • PF and ESIC registration

    EPFO and ESIC registrations, so statutory contributions for staff can actually be paid.

  • Track record

    Years in business, staff on payroll and current clients we can call for a reference.

  • Kept up to date

    Licences have expiry dates. We track them, remind agencies before they lapse, and pause those that aren't renewed.

After approval

Verification doesn't stop at the badge

  • Every quote is checked

    Before a customer sees a quote, we check it: wages, statutory lines, GST and terms. We send it back to the agency if something's missing.

  • Expiry is tracked

    We record licence expiry dates, remind agencies before they lapse, and pause agencies whose papers aren't renewed.

  • Ratings from real jobs only

    Only a customer whose job was completed through us can rate an agency. No anonymous or bought reviews.

  • Problems have consequences

    Complaints are followed up. Agencies that don't meet the standard are paused or removed.
