What Chexperts does
Bring your whole supply chain into one clearance process
Subcontractors submit workers through Chexperts. We bring together the information needed for clearance and give your security team one consistent application to review.
Use Chexperts for BPSS, or keep your existing screening providers.

Four connected stages
What happens at each stage
BPSS is an important part of the journey. Chexperts also controls what happens around it: routing, submission, review and oversight.
01
Route
Invite the person into your clearance process
When a subcontractor has someone who needs access to a project or secure site, you send them a unique Chexperts link. The subcontractor uses it to start their Clearance Application, order BPSS, or do both, depending on the route you have set.
You provide supplier your unique link
Supplier starts the required clearance route
02
Complete BPSS
Complete BPSS through Chexperts or another provider
Chexperts can carry out the BPSS checks, or the subcontractor can use their existing background-check provider. Either route produces the BPSS outcome needed for the wider Clearance Application.
BPSS checks are completed by provider
The outcome is added to the Clearance Application
03
Submit
Subcontractor submits the complete Clearance Application
The subcontractor submits the BPSS outcome together with the clearance information, evidence and supporting documents your process requires. Chexperts keeps the submission in one consistent format for your team.
Supplier adds the required evidence
One complete application is submitted
04
Review
Your security team review the application
Your security team reviews the BPSS outcome, supporting evidence and application details together. They can identify anything missing, record the next action and apply your organisation’s own approval process.
Security team reviews the application
The decision and status are recorded

Keep what already works
You do not have to change your BPSS provider
Already have screening providers you are happy with? Keep them. Chexperts can manage the clearance process around your existing providers, or complete the BPSS for you.
Either way, your security team gets the same consistent clearance process.
