Due Diligence

Applied Gorkha Solutions' due diligence process is the cornerstone of our deployment quality. Before any personnel are placed with a client, they pass through a comprehensive verification framework built to international compliance standards.

Our due diligence covers criminal background checks, employment history verification, reference validation, medical screening, and skills assessment. We use both in-country verification networks and international database checks to ensure completeness.

Due diligence is the modality every other service depends on. A guard on an embassy gate, a team embarked on a vessel, and a worker placed with an overseas employer are all only as sound as the checks that cleared them, so the same framework runs before anyone is put forward, whatever the role or destination.

The in-person stage matters more than it might appear. Documentary checks establish eligibility; they do not establish judgement, temperament, or whether someone will hold a position calmly at three in the morning. That is assessed face to face in Kathmandu before a candidate reaches a client shortlist.

Combining in-country networks with international database checks exists to close a specific gap. A record held only in a district office in Nepal will not surface in an international database, and a sanctions listing will not surface in a local reference call. Checking one without the other produces a clean result that means very little, which is why both run on every candidate.

Records are retained so that verification can be traced after the fact. Clients, auditors, and end customers can establish how a specific person was cleared, on what evidence, and when — which matters in regulated sectors, in diplomatic and maritime work, and in any contract where the client carries downstream liability for who is on their site.

For clients in regulated industries — including financial services, critical infrastructure, and government contracts — we offer enhanced due diligence packages with third-party audit certification.

Where a client operates its own compliance framework, vetting standard, or documentation requirement, we work to that standard rather than substituting our own. Applied Gorkha Solutions operates under Government of Nepal licence number 1739/081/082.
