Ground truth, when the desk is not enough.
An analyst on your desk, or vetted researchers confirming on site what the desk suspects. Every package starts with a call. Nothing here is sold off the shelf.
Analyst on your desk
A dedicated analyst for your watchlist, with standing reports, alerts and direct access when something breaks.
Site and route checks
Vetted local researchers confirm what open sources suggest about a site, supplier or route.
Pre-visit reconnaissance
A grounded read on a location before your people go, with a travel risk assessment written for the trip.
Duty of care comes first
Field work follows ISO 31030 guidance on travel risk management. Every trip has a written travel risk assessment signed off before booking, a check-in schedule, and a plan for getting people home. Local partners are part of our duty of care, and their identities stay protected.
Some locations we will not send people to, at any price. If we cannot meet our own standard, we decline the work.
Before any field engagement
- A scoping call with a senior analyst
- Enhanced client vetting, including end user and purpose
- A location tier assessment
- A written travel risk assessment
- A field engagement addendum to your agreement
Field capability is offered case by case and only where our insurance, legal review and partner vetting allow.
