This document addresses common questions from service providers interested in listing on the IPN platform.

What is the IPN Directory?
The India Partner Network (IPN) Directory is a list of Organisations, Independent consultants, Programs & Courses, Forums & Communities that can help non-profits in their institutional capacity building. It’s open to everyone, whether they are registered on IPN or not. The directory brings together various support systems to help nonprofits find the right support they need.
What are the benefits of being listed on the IPN Directory?
IPN has over 2000+ nonprofits and 3000+ users. Being listed increases your visibility and connects you with potential clients. You get a unique IPN directory link that you can share to increase visibility within your network.
How can a service provider get listed on the platform?
Getting listed is simple! Fill out the Expression of Interest

. The IPN team will evaluate your fitment and based on this send you an onboarding form to complete. After a quick review by the IPN team, your listing will go live, and we’ll inform you once it’s up.
What are the eligibility criteria for getting listed?
We are keen on listing providers who offer Capacity Building services to nonprofits in the Org Development areas that IPN is focussed on. This is the main criteria for listing. Kindly note that the final decision to list an entity lies with the IPN team.
Is there a fee to get listed on the directory?
No, listing your services on the directory is completely free.
Does IPN charge a commission if a service provider gets business through the platform?
No, IPN does not charge any commission if you get any business through the platform. Once an NGO connects with you through the platform, all conversations and agreements are handled directly between you and the NGO.

Every 6 months, IPN will send you a form to review and update your listing. We’ll make the updates after receiving your response.
Is there a limit to the number of services a provider can list?
Yes, service providers can list only up to 10 services in the "Services Offered" section.
Can NGOs leave reviews or feedback on a service provider’s listing?
Currently, NGOs can’t leave reviews or feedback on listings, but we may add this feature in the future.
What happens if a service provider doesn’t want to work with an NGO that reaches out through IPN?
Service providers have full control over who they work with. If you choose not to proceed with an NGO, you can decide not to offer your services.
How often is the IPN directory updated?
The directory is updated once in 6 months to keep information relevant and up-to-date. While data for existing service providers is refreshed every 6 months, new additions to the listing can be made on an ad-hoc basis.
How can service providers get support or raise technical issues?
If you face any issues or need help, you can write to us at ipn@indiapartnernetwork.org, and we’ll resolve it as quickly as possible.
