Intelligence gathering is the art of investigation and research. Discretion is imperative to ensure the investigated party remains unaware. Efficiency is equally important, entailing information is obtained both swiftly and accurately. Commercial decisions frequently rely on data, facts and opinion, often obtained by a third party. Problems can occur when the information is not quite as accurate as first thought. Investigations Direct will prove the validity and check backgrounds of companies and individuals, both within the UK and abroad. Background checks can verify the history of a company or individual and provide current information into their activities. This can prove invaluable when considering the appointment of an individual to a position of trust and responsibility or in assessing a company in cases of acquisition or merger. Our research, for example, when used in connection with surveillance techniques, can uncover cases of theft, keep watch over deliveries and prove whether a member of staff is passing clients to a third party. Bespoke covert devices can be used to monitor audio and video and create recordings of conversations in the car, in the home or office or on telephone lines. If you are the bill payer and the registered owner, we can supply and install covert recording systems on your telephone lines. All enquiries are treated in the strictest of confidence.
