Intelligence Services

Intelligence Analysis and Surveillance are both powerful tools that can provide you with some level of certainty where there was only hearsay or suspicion before. If conducted lawfully and ethically, they can provide strong support for your process and ultimately will help your decision withstand legal scrutiny.

Intelligence Analysis

Our experienced Intelligence Analysts use the latest analysis techniques and software (Analyst’s Notebook) to identify patterns, prepare chronologies and to make sense of large amounts of data.

Visual representation of data enables you to interpret large quantities of complex information quickly, easily and cost effectively. Visual representation of an event or series of events can highlight previously unknown links and relationships. For example:

  • Association Link Charts display links between individuals and/or organisations
  • Commodity Flow Charts display the flow of financial/asset transactions
  • Time Lines display important events in chronological order
  • Call Charge/Email Flow Charts display telephone and email traffic between individuals and/or organisations.

Surveillance

We have developed an approach to surveillance that ensures every surveillance activity is targeted, relevant and actionable. To achieve this, we:

  • Meet to establish objectives, guidelines and timeframes. During this time we outline your options and identify the best course of action.
  • The surveillance is then conducted in a timely and professional manner.
  • Once the surveillance is finalised, you will receive a report, complete with photographic and video evidence if required. This report will identify if the allegations can be substantiated or unsubstantiated and provide recommendations.

Surveillance can be static, mobile or covert and can involve either one or multiple operatives.
