?What services can you expect from us
OGEN offers a wide range of services to support you at any point in your professional relationships and decision-making processes. Here's a brief insight as to what you can expect from us.
Collecting competitive intelligence
It's always a good business decision to know what your competitors are up to. Gaining insight into the happenings of your competitors can allow you to make critical marketing and hiring decisions, pre-empt the next trend in your industry, and control the market. Gain the upper hand and empower your business with deep competitive intelligence.
Economic Investigations
One of the most effective ways to ensure your business's future growth and development is by improving your business's knowledge of economic and strategic intelligence. To further grow and develop, we collect, process, analyze, and verify our found intelligence regarding your interested and involved parties. Whether they are potential partnerships, employees, investors, or competitors, we will unveil any potential risk areas.
Reliability checks for employees
This information is verified before a new hire signs their contract to ensure they are being upfront with their history and are indeed a reliable candidate. Or an existing employee wishes to receive access to a certain level of private company information.
Surveillance
Each situation requires a unique approach. If you have reason to believe that you or your business may be at risk of harm or stolen information, setting up a professional surveillance system (both in-person and online) can help protect your business assets.
Embezzlement investigation and prevention
Businesses all around the world lose money every year due to embezzlement. Unfortunately, many employees and even owners often have no idea it is occurring right under their noses. Embezzlement investigation and prevention practices can help not only secure a business's funds but to maintain a level of trust and security within your organization.
Organizational risk management
All companies must take risks if they wish to grow to any degree. However, having a data-informed and strategic risk strategy can help mitigate and minimize any unnecessary risk on your part.
Due diligence
Due diligence is the examination of an individual, business, or organization to inform vital decisions such as employment or partnership investments. For example, this process will usually occur before a new hire signs their contract or a partnership agreement is formed to ensure that the involved party is sharing information about themselves and their current situation that is true and correct.
Detection of eavesdropping
Eavesdropping is much more than a schoolyard term. In the business and security world, it references the theft of private information, usually retrieved via hacking or viruses. However, there are multiple ways you can protect yourself online to minimize the risk of confidential information being stolen.

What you should do before hiring a Private Investigator
Make sure the Private Investigator has a license
This should be the first question you ask a potential Private Investigator. Legitimate Private Investigators will pre-empt this, and if they can't provide proof of said license, well, you should keep searching. Of course, you want someone who is well experienced and qualified, but for your sake, you also need to ensure that everything you're doing is legal to prevent any issues for your business.
Make sure the private investigator is a member of the organization of private investigators
Again, this further legitimizes them and their actions and ensures that they do everything correctly and legally. Being a part of this organization also means that they are much more likely to have connections to individuals and resources that may stretch outside their (and your) specific area. For example, if you're considering a partnership with an international investor for the first time and need information gathered from a multitude of areas.
Make sure your Private Investigator specializes in the area that you require
This may mean both; a particular country or region, or they have connections in said region. Or, it may mean they specialize in a specific area of investigation such as corporate investigations, technical surveillance and protection, or embezzlement investigation and security.
Gather recommendations and referrals
Word of mouth and personal experience is one of the most trusted methods of referrals. When you're first searching, ask your other 'business buddies' who they used to conduct their Private Investigations and how they felt about the work they did for them. Once you've found a potential contender, you can ask them if you're able to speak to any of their previous clients to hear about their experience with them. Due to the nature of the work, this isn't always an option, but sometimes it is, and you'll never know unless you ask.
Ensure you thoroughly vet the investigation firm
Then, depending on each of your locations, you may choose to conduct an in-person interview. Or host a meeting via Zoom. Either way, make sure you chat with them first and do due process.
Trust your gut
Some of the best advice you'll ever get to help you across the board is this: trust your gut. This intelligence firm will essentially become another arm of your business, even if they're just a contractor. So make sure the firm and its processes are something you're happy to get on board with.
