About Us

Fifteen years in, we've stopped calling this an admin problem

Contractor compliance looked very different fifteen years ago, manual, scattered, and hard to prove after the fact. We've spent every year since building the alternative.

Our vision

A Europe where contractor compliance protects people without slowing down the work.

Our mission

We make contractor compliance work for both sides: less admin for the industrial sites that need proof, less repetition for the contractors who have to provide it.

Why it matters

Onyx One is proof that specialist focus and enterprise scale aren't a trade-off

Because contractor compliance isn't a checklist. Automatic checks catch a missing document; it takes a person to catch one that's valid but wrong for the job.

Because joining the world's largest supply chain risk and compliance network, 3,200+ hiring clients, 140,000+ contractors, across 140+ countries, didn't dilute that focus. It gave it more to draw on.

Because a platform this specific still has to work for a single-site operation and a multi-country one alike.

Work with people who've seen it before

Fifteen years of contractor compliance means the exception you're facing probably isn't new to us.

Get specialist depth, with enterprise backup

The focus of a dedicated team, the resources of a 3,200-client network behind it.

Use a platform built for exactly this

Not a general compliance tool adapted for contractors. Built for this, from day one.

How we got here

A real question, fifteen years ago, still shapes what we build

The question that started it

One of our first major clients, a petrochemical manufacturer, asked something that had no easy answer at the time: how do you train 10,000 people across 20 countries, in nearly as many languages, and keep track of every certificate needed to work on sites around the world? Answering that properly meant building around the actual mess of contractor compliance, not a simplified version of it. That question still shapes what we build.

What joining Veriforce actually changed

Being part of the world's largest contractor network changes the maths for everyone in it. A contractor qualified through Onyx One becomes visible to 3,200+ hiring clients, not just the one who brought them in. Behind that, the same scale gives us a security and compliance infrastructure most specialist platforms can't build alone, and a shared training catalogue of 1,000+ courses on top of it.
