OUR STORY
Better information.
More informed decisions.
From research roots to a people-focused screening company.
Our roots reach back to 1998, when our founder searched for assets to collect a personal judgment. That experience revealed a need for more practical, cost-effective research.
Initially, the business focused on asset searches and skip tracing for legal and investigative clients. As needs evolved, our focus shifted toward consumer reporting.
BCS Background Screening has operated since 2010 from Coral Gables, Florida. Today, we serve organizations across the United States as a consumer reporting agency.
Our role is to provide information for your decisions. However, your organization remains responsible for lawful screening policies and final decisions.
WHO WE HELP
One background screening company.
Different screening needs.
Choose background check services that match your purpose and responsibilities. For example, hiring, Fintech and tenant screening require different workflows.
Employment background screening
Review criminal records, employment history, education, and professional credentials. Additionally, select searches that fit the position and applicable rules.
MSB background screening
Our niche. Our specialized experience delivering custom-built solutions for Money Services Businesses (MSBs) has established us as one of the leading providers to the industry’s largest money transmitter companies.
Tenant background checks
Support rental decisions with tenant screening reports. However, landlords must follow applicable consumer reporting and fair housing requirements.
Healthcare background screening
Review professional licenses, criminal records, and healthcare sanctions. Additionally, explore FACIS® Level III screening for healthcare roles.
Volunteer background checks
Screen volunteers for organizations, sports programs, and faith communities. Similarly, tailor each search to the role and relevant requirements.

RESPONSIBLE SCREENING
Clear information.
Clear responsibilities.
Employment screening involves legal obligations, not just report ordering. Therefore, build your process around applicable federal, state, and local requirements.
For employment reports from a consumer reporting agency, the FTC outlines these key responsibilities.
- Disclose and obtain permission.First, provide a clear, stand-alone written disclosure. Obtain written authorization before ordering an employment background report. Also, certify your lawful purpose and required compliance to the reporting agency.
- Follow adverse-action procedures.Before adverse action based even partly on an employment report, provide that report and the FCRA Summary of Rights. Allow reasonable time for review and disputes. Then, send the required adverse-action notice if you proceed.
- Apply the right rules.Additionally, check state and local restrictions, including applicable fair-chance rules. Apply lawful, nondiscriminatory standards to employment decisions.
This overview does not cover every requirement. Consult qualified counsel about your screening program; this page provides general information, not legal advice.
