Defence & Government

125,000 new defence jobs.
Every one needs a clearance.
Is your CSO ready?

Virvell automates the entire clearance screening pipeline. Voice AI collects 330-60E form data, conducts employment verification calls, character references, and neighbourhood checks — then automatically cross-references every data point to catch discrepancies before your CSO submits to PSPC.

The CSO Bottleneck
Your CSO is the single point of failure for every clearance. And volume is about to triple.

Canada's Defence Industrial Strategy will create 125,000 new defence jobs this decade — a 3-4x increase over the current 36,000-person workforce. Every hire needs clearance. Every clearance application goes through your CSO.

Form Rejections Reset the Clock

Incomplete or inaccurate 330-23E and 330-60E forms are one of the most common causes of processing delays. A single missing employment date or residential gap means your application gets kicked back and the processing clock resets entirely — weeks or months lost per candidate.

Manual Verification Is Pure Phone Tag

Your CSO must personally contact every previous employer for 5-10 years of work history — confirming dates, position, reason for leaving, and performance. Plus character references, neighbourhood references, and professional contacts. That's hours of calls per candidate.

No Pre-Cleared Talent Pools

Since the October 2021 reform, companies can't maintain pools of pre-cleared workers. Every new contract means starting clearance from scratch. When you win work, your ability to staff up depends entirely on how fast your screening pipeline moves.

CSO Workflow Automation
Three modules. One intelligence layer. Zero phone tag.

Virvell replaces your three separate screening vendors with one platform that automatically cross-checks every data point across modules — catching what siloed tools never can.

AI Pre-Screen Interviews

Voice AI walks candidates through 7 structured sections mapping directly to 330-60E and 330-23E form fields: identity and citizenship, 10-year residential history, employment history with supervisor contacts, education, references, clearance and foreign exposure, and consent declarations. 17 automated flag rules catch blockers and warnings before anything touches PSPC.

17 Flag Rules · 7 Sections

Voice Reference Checks

Three call types, all live: Employment verification confirms dates, title, departure reason, and rehire eligibility with former supervisors. Character references assess trustworthiness, reliability, and loyalty aligned to PSPC adjudication criteria. Neighbourhood references verify residence timelines for Top Secret. All calls auto-analyzed for discrepancies against pre-screen data.

3 Call Types · Live

Background Verification

Criminal record checks and credit verification across Canadian and US jurisdictions via Certn integration. Includes ITAR substantive contacts screening and CGP eligibility indicators. Results feed directly into cross-module intelligence.

Cross-Module Intelligence

The platform automatically detects discrepancies across all three screening modules — something no single-vendor competitor can offer. Employment dates from pre-screens cross-referenced against employer verification calls. Job titles compared between candidate claims and supervisor reports. Criminal declarations checked against background results. Character reference signals compared to pre-screen disclosures on financial responsibility and substance use. All findings surfaced for human review — never auto-rejected.

Candidate claims 5 years at prior employer · Reference confirms only 2 years · 8-month residential gap detected in 330-60E data · ITAR substantive contact indicator flagged
