A unique hybrid of
in-court and
multi-regional provider, we are a direct source of public record research whose feet are on the courthouse steps. We offer the responsiveness of an individual researcher, yet the resources, customer service and technical ability of a nationwide provider.
To date we have reliably provided millions of quality background
checks—in compliance with industry standards we participated in establishing.
When the National Association of Professional Background Screeners (NAPBS) began forming in 2002, we were
asked to help formulate professional standards for Criminal Research Providers—which
eventually evolved into the
NAPBS Criminal Research Provider Guidelines,
more recently complemented by their on-line
Exam.
Timothy was furthermore invited to co-chair the founding NAPBS Provider
Committee, from which position he helped bring about the creation of seven other sets of NAPBS Provider Guidelines, including the industry-critical
NAPBS Provider Data Security & Privacy Guidelines and their upcoming on-line
Exam.
Accordingly, Baxter Research has forgone the commonplace practice of insecurely
aggregating consumer PII in a residential environment; electing instead to
contain all PII within a secure electronic environment, and housing our servers in a commercial data center.
Furthermore we've invested years of development in our innovative third generation Researcher Direct™, a data-secure mobile application which consummates a secure, seamless, direct integration between our integrated clients and their dedicated researchers in the courts.
All members of our research group with access to PII are required to undergo a background check,
as well as certify on any available NAPBS Provider Guidelines
Exams.
We furnish a high quality, relatively data secure service at an increasingly competitive rate—
without skimping on professional provider standards such as adequate Errors, Omissions and Liability Insurance; effective data security measures; formal training and apprenticing; a working knowledge of the applicable laws, standards and guidelines of our sector; required licensure; and the myriad
other unseen smaller actions that differentiate the more professional provider.
With Baxter Research you can rest assured
we are your researchers. Our
administrative model safeguards against the hidden pitfalls of "cottage industry
expansion" (the friend's neighbor's daughter of the provider you initially hired winds up handling your research as her summer job).
Our
purpose is to help protect honest employers and employees from antisocial behavior in the workplace.
Our
mission is to earn our client's loyalty by combining our
administrative skill, industry experience and innovative technology to deliver
an optimum in value, speed and quality of service at a level of comprehensive
data security relatively unseen in the provider sector of our industry.
