A company manufacturing steel products and employing 400 persons came to us because its incomes were not adequate to revenues in the accounts. Our task was to intervene in order to identify and document the underlying practice. Our internal investigation revealed an uncontrolled departure of 3 TIR trucks loaded with steel weekly. The related losses sustained by the Company reached several million Zlotys. Our Agents uncovered the illegal activities of the organised group which involved among other persons the director, the head of production and other non-executive employees along with security employees.

A Client of one of the leading brands of plant protection products in Poland received information that their product appeared on the market from an unknown source. In the course of our investigation, we were supposed to identify an illegal manufacturing plant and indicate persons responsible for the practice in question. The investigation revealed the existence of an illegal manufacturing plant on the territory of Ukraine. An organised group manufactured the product and then transported it illegally across the border to Poland. There, the wholesalers bought it and “legalised” it by selling it at a lowered price.

Our assignments are also based on an effective dialogue with local inhabitants. An example may be the task we carried out for one of foreign companies dealing with searching for and extracting raw materials. The local inhabitants were against it because of complications for their everyday life and decreasing its quality. We conducted persuasive actions in order to convince the local inhabitants that the projects in progress were reasonable. Local inhabitants were willing to cooperate with us which resulted in continuing the project smoothly by the company.

The assignment from one of the leading automotive brands consisted in identifying a group which distributed illegally car sub-assemblies. Our intelligence team was to find illegal sources and recipients of goods. As a result, we eliminated one of the largest groups in Poland dealing with distribution of illegal sub-assemblies.

The service we provided covered verifying sales representatives (of one of the food industry operators employing around 140 sales reps) who sought orders from grocery stores for their employer. It turned out that they indeed sought such orders, however additionally some of them (70 sales reps) sought them also for the competition of our client and received for it pecuniary remuneration. The practice in question involved also heads of regional units and sales coaches. Our client estimated their losses at several million Zlotys.
