This is Portico
The platform behind standards-based public safety psychological evaluation. Intake to finalized report, performed by licensed psychologists, with one record that follows a candidate from evaluation through hire and across a career.
Pre-Employment
Pre-employment evaluations use validated, job-relevant measures to assess decision-making, stress tolerance, and risk factors. Evaluations are performed by licensed psychologists, and findings are clear and defensible — designed to support fair selection and reduce turnover.
From intake to finalized report, the process runs through Portico, keeping things transparent for candidates and
agencies alike.
Leadership Competence Evaluation
Leadership Competence Evaluations (promotional psychological evaluations) assess leadership readiness using scenario-based assessments and evidence-driven
tools that map directly to role demands.
Evaluations are performed by licensed psychologists and address accountability, judgment, communication, and team impact. Available in two tiers — supervisory and command — matched to the scope of authority of the position. Each evaluation is tracked through Portico, giving candidates practical feedback and agencies a consistent record across every promotional cycle.
Safeguards & Wellness Checks
Safeguard and wellness evaluations are proactive, confidential check-ins that identify stress, burnout, and emerging risk early, before they affect performance or safety.
Missouri agencies: these check-ins support the recurring requirement under RSMo 590.192. See what the statute requires and how completion is tracked.
Licensed psychologists use structured, evidence-driven screens and brief interviews to provide clear next steps, from short-term strategies to referrals and follow-up. Scheduling and participation run through Portico, so leaders see high-level trends while individual privacy and dignity stay rigorously protected.
How Portico works
A clear path from referral to final report.
Agency initiates referral
The agency submits a new evaluation request securely.
Candidate receives credentials
Secure login details are sent directly to the candidate.
Assessments are completed
Scheduling and evaluations happen inside the platform.
Clinicians compile findings
The licensed psychologist reviews the structured findings, drafts, and attests to the report. Scoring is computed, not generated.
Built for absolute trust
Every record is protected by HIPAA-compliant storage and encrypted communication. Role-based access ensures only authorized eyes see sensitive data, maintaining a verifiable chain of custody from intake to archive.
See the whole picture without compromising privacy
Agency leadership views real-time status for every active evaluation on a single dashboard. High-level progress is clear while individual clinical data remains strictly walled off, cutting administrative noise.
One hub replaces the scattered email chains
Clinicians, candidates, and referring contacts connect inside a centralized workspace where every message is logged and auditable. The record is complete and the process stays clean.
