Dynamic Universal Standard
Current evaluation and assessment procedures are too subjective, with approval decided by an individual manager’s personal opinion or an organization’s blanket policy.
Oscore has introduced the Opportunity Score. Oscore is a dynamic universal scoring standard as a supplement to the criminal record. This concept mirrors that of the credit score which provides lenders a present-day assessment of credit worthiness in addition to the historical credit report.
Oscore provides a present-day assessment in addition to the historical criminal record. Thanks to this, it reflects a more accurate depiction of who an individual is today.
