The 8020 Group evaluates prospective partners based on relevant capabilities, applicable licensing, insurance, and alignment with our professional standards.


2. PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT


Approved providers may enter into a written partnership agreement outlining participation expectations, referral arrangements, applicable fees, confidentiality requirements, and responsibilities.


Participation does not guarantee referrals, project assignments, or a specific volume of business.


3. PROJECT OPPORTUNITIES & COLLABORATION


When client requirements call for specialized security capabilities, The 8020 Group may identify qualified providers for consideration based on project scope, operational requirements, location, and availability.


Partner recommendations are guided by client needs and provider suitability.

The 8020 Group maintains a separate consulting and advisory relationship with the client.


5. REFERRAL ARRANGEMENTS & TRANSPARENCY


Where applicable and legally permitted, referral compensation is governed by individual written agreements.


Relevant financial relationships are disclosed to clients as appropriate to maintain transparency and support independent recommendations.
