ValorValuations Partners with ShieldHub to Enhance Occupant and Property Safety with Monitored Contractor Criminal Risk Scores

ShieldHub, a criminal background risk scoring and monitoring solution for independent contractors, is pleased to announce that it has been selected by ValorValuations as an encouraged and accepted background screening solution for its U.S Military Veterans nationwide panel, including inspectors, property data collectors and valuation professionals. ShieldHub will be providing a portable, living background risk scoring solution that includes integrated digital identity validation, a multi-year and multi-county background check with continuous monitoring.

“We’re proud to partner with ValorValuations to provide ongoing risk awareness across their nationwide network of U.S. military Veterans,” said Shane Copeland, CEO of ShieldHub. “ValorValuations is committed to protecting homeowners and property occupants and ensuring the highest standards of trust and safety in the valuation process. By implementing ShieldHub’s continuously monitored ShieldScore—supported by ID validation and thorough background checks—Valor is taking proactive steps to give clients confidence in every interaction. Veterans on the ValorValuations panel will also benefit from joining the 110,000+ independent contractors who use ShieldScore sharing to reduce costs and strengthen trust across our growing partner network.”

ValorValuations will be able to engage vendors through their own private branded portal (www.shieldhub.store/valorvaluations) that manages the entire process and provides continuous feedback that always identifies potential risk within their contractor panel.

“Veterans bring a natural integrity and discipline to the valuation process, and that’s a cornerstone of our model at ValorValuations,” said Jeanette McLain, President of ValorValuations. “By partnering with ShieldHub, we’re adding another layer of confidence for our clients—ensuring that our Veteran-powered panel not only delivers accuracy and efficiency, but also meets the highest standards of professionalism and occupant protection.”

ShieldHub is a Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) compliant criminal background-monitoring technology solution that enables a risk composite ShieldScore^TM 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^TM 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^TM 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.
