Dey Page multi-state business directory with field verification
For Dey Page, Netbase built a multi-state business directory in Nigeria: a mobile-first web directory, a companion app, and a field-verification process that confirms a listed business actually exists where it says it does. This record reports built scope on a 12-week web and mobile plan.

What Netbase built
Three parts work together: a mobile-first public directory, a field-verified badge process, and a companion app.
| Component | What it does | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Public directory | Server-rendered state, city and category pages with search filters, reviews and click-to-chat messaging; OTP sign-in by phone rather than email; uploaded video and watermarked photographs; featured listings and badges sold as subscriptions through two payment providers | Buyers browsing and discovering businesses from a phone browser, and operators selling featured placement |
| Field-verified badge | A field agent visits the business, captures geotagged photographs and identity evidence; a head-office queue reviews the result before the badge appears, and it expires after 12 months | An operator that needs proof a listed business exists, not just an email or phone check |
| Companion app | Consumer and business-owner modes, push notifications, deep links and checkout through an in-application browser | Shoppers and business owners who want a dedicated mobile surface alongside the web directory |
Behind the public side, five administrator roles work against per-state dashboards, so the operator can run one state's moderation queue without touching another's. Agents work where connectivity is unreliable, so badge capture synchronises offline and uploads when a connection returns; it also runs in the mobile web application rather than the native app, keeping the agent tooling deployable without a store release. A directory operator scoping a similar build across states or provinces can compare adjacent sector patterns such as real estate and construction, the launch sequence on the local business directory launch guide, and the platform pattern on business directory platforms. Directory operators serving landlords or property managers specifically can see property and tenant operations.
Technology and delivery
The directory is server-rendered and mobile-first, which suits a catalogue whose pages have to be found by search and opened on modest devices over modest connections. Subscriptions run through two payment providers rather than one. The recorded plan covered 12 weeks across web and mobile.
Evidence level and limitations
This record has narrower limits than most, stated in full here.
- The source is a proposal dated June 2026.
- The project domain did not resolve when it was checked on 17 September 2026. That check is why the no-launch restriction exists and why this record reports what was built rather than what is running.
- A recommendation engine and the remaining second-phase items are out of scope. Nothing here is offered as evidence of delivered artificial-intelligence work.
- The client's legal entity, its representative and the intermediary company involved are withheld in every form of this record.
- The client is named here on Netbase's own authority, recorded in the claim register on 25 September 2026. No consent from this client is on record, and no confidentiality obligation covers the project. If the client asks not to be named, this record reverts to the anonymised form the register keeps for it; the methodology page carries the address for that request.
- The image on this page is illustrative. It shows no client system and no interface.
Questions a buyer asks
What coverage was the directory built for? One state at the outset, designed to scale to all 36.
Do field agents use the mobile app? No. Field capture runs in the mobile web application. The native app serves consumers and business owners.
How is the badge verified? A person visits, a head-office queue reviews the evidence, and the badge expires after 12 months.
Can Netbase work with a client in my country? Yes. Every service on this site is delivered remotely from Hanoi, and Netbase has worked with clients in 80 countries. Delivery communication is in English, with weekly reviews and a named project manager.
Does Netbase work in my industry? Netbase takes on projects in any industry where the work can be delivered remotely and accepted by milestones. The industry pages describe the approach sector by sector, and the Work records show delivered projects.
How do I pay for a project? Payment is by bank transfer to the company account of Netbase JSC or through PayPal Business. The payee is always Netbase JSC, the company that operates OutsourcingVN.
Who do I talk to, and how do I start a project? Talk to Huy Nguyen (David), Founder and CEO of Netbase JSC: message him on WhatsApp at +84 937 869 689 or email project@netbasejsc.com. You can also send your brief through the project request form. Say which workflow or system the project concerns and what has to stay unchanged; the first step is a discovery conversation, and scope and milestones are agreed after it.
Building something that has to be verified in person?
Field processes change how a project is planned, which the project delivery page describes, and comparable systems are scoped through Custom Product Engineering. The methodology page sets out how limits like the ones above are recorded across the work records. When you are ready, submit a project brief. OutsourcingVN is operated by Netbase JSC and is Netbase's own outsourcing-services platform.
