Redakcinė metodika

Kaip mes tikriname kiekvieną įmonę PVFirms.

PVFirms yra redakcinis, o ne mokamas katalogas. Kiekvienas įrašas — Įtraukta, Patvirtinta ar Premium partneris — praeina tuos pačius viešai dokumentuotus patikrinimus. Nė viena įmonė negali nusipirkti aukštesnio lygio. Šis puslapis yra visos taisyklės.

Pasitikėjimas, užtarnaujamas pamažu

Kiekviena įmonė pradeda nuo Įtraukta. Lygiai kaupiasi — Patvirtinta perima visus Įtraukta patikrinimus, Premium partneris perima Patvirtinta. Įmonės kyla aukštyn tik atitikusios kitą viešų kriterijų rinkinį.

Nuo pateikimo iki ženklelio

Žingsnis 01

Submission & intake

Company submits via the Add Your Company form, or claims an auto-generated profile. We log company name, registered address and self-declared category.

Žingsnis 02

Public registry sweep

Cross-check across VIES (EU VAT), national commercial registers (Handelsregister, KvK, Mercantile Register, etc.) and OpenCorporates. Rejected if registration is dissolved or inactive.

Žingsnis 03

Document & identity review

We request certificate of incorporation, current insurance certificate, officer ID and recent invoices to confirm trading activity. Documents are stored encrypted, never published.

Žingsnis 04

Reference & review check

Declared customers are contacted. Independent search for negative press, regulatory actions and review patterns. Notes are attached to the company file.

Žingsnis 05

Inspection (Premium)

For the Premium Partner tier: a closer editorial inspection of the company's operations, certifications and staff.

Žingsnis 06

Tier assignment & publication

The verification outcome is published on the company profile with the badge. Companies can appeal a tier decision; appeals are reviewed independently.
