about us
a background screening company built with you in mind
our story | started with a desire to serve others
Welcome to EDIFY Background Screening, a company built to serve your needs where we prioritize people over profits. As a company, we firmly believe in the fundamental importance of servant leadership and we are committed to going above and beyond to ensure your success and safety.
EDIFY Background Screening was founded in 2010 out of our founder’s frustration with not being able to find a responsive and affordable background screening provider for a small non-profit organization that only needed to run a hand-full of background checks per year. Initially the goal was to provide professional, personalized, and affordable background checks for smaller organizations viewed as “small potatoes”, but it quickly became apparent that larger organizations were suffering as well from poor service, outdated technology, and the clunky processes of larger and older legacy providers that had forgotten what it was like truly serve people and put the needs of their clients first.
At EDIFY, we have developed our services with your specific needs in mind. Our continuous efforts to enhance and expand our capabilities allow us to offer premium Fortune 500 level employment background screening products and services to organizations nationwide. Unlike self-described “technology firms” providing background checks that prioritize profits for their private-equity owners and offer pre-configured, generic solutions, we take the time to understand your requirements. We collaborate with you to create custom solutions that cater to the unique needs of your organization, ensuring you stand out from the crowd of 100,000 others.
