1. GLOBAL INTELLIGENCE COLLECTION:
In today’s global environment and marketplace, business intelligence and risk mitigation management are critical to protect ones business opportunities, assets and employees. GLOBAL INTEL STRATEGIES and its international network of associates from the law-enforcement, intelligence, military, business and legal communities can address those specific needs.
Trustworthy, vetted business intelligence is critical in today’s global environment. Whether you’re looking to open up new markets, establish global partnerships or looking to invest globally, our team of professionals can provide strategic intelligence guiding your next move. Our veteran team of associates has conducted global collection and strategic operations for clients both large and small.
Proper due diligence will allow you to know your clients, vendors, investors and potential business partners. The world has changed significantly in recent years due to increased global security concerns and changes in Federal law commensurate with these concerns. These changes have created a more complicated global business environment. As businesses today operate in the global milieu, it is imperative they are aware and ever mindful of changes in the laws that govern international business practices, particularly, the U.S. PATRIOT ACT, the SARBANES-OXLEY ACT, the FOREIGN CORRUPT PRACTICES ACT (FCPA), and the U.S. BANK SECRECY ACT.
2. INTERNATIONAL GOVERNMENT RELATIONS:
Government relations on foreign soil can be complex and full of challenges for the inexperienced. In today’s world of rapidly evolving technology, resource transfers, wealth shifts, satellite communications, and democratic upheavals, U.S. business needs to be fully prepared to compete in the global marketplace. Globalization has created a more interrelated world than ever before in history and that phenomenon will increase exponentially in the years to come. International trade is more complicated than domestic commerce. Conditions of competition abroad often seem unfair and unfamiliar to American business people and local laws, customs and protocol may be alien to those looking to expand their reach into overseas markets.
Our international team experts can prevent a foreign government from legislating against a company, nationalizing its property or ordering its removal, through a combination of marketing tactics, diplomacy, troubleshooting and government relations.

5. CORPORATE CRISIS COMMUNICATION / ISSUE MANAGEMENT:
​
Each day the world’s headlines are filled with companies dealing with one crisis or another. Some crises are self-imposed. In others, the companies are the unfortunate victims of a crime, sabotage or an accident. Some companies, like Johnson and Johnson, responded well to their Tylenol crisis and others, like Exxon and the Valdez incident don’t fare so well. Crisis communication and Issues management is really “reputation” management. The inability and know-how to deal with a corporate crisis quickly, effectively and professionally can mean not only significant “brand” damage but devastating losses in revenues, the faith of stockholders and potential exposure to liability and tort actions brought about by plaintiff attorneys.
Having the right team on your side is critical in the face of a corporate crisis. Our team of Crisis Communication professionals can teach, train and/or work directly with your management team to be proactive, anticipate crises and with a sudden phone call or text message, deploy and activate all the necessary resources to minimize the damage and get your “corporate ship” back on course.
Our team will work with all the requisite components to address and mitigate the situation where appropriate; public safety personnel such as police and fire departments; the media; local, state and federal government and regulatory entities, as well as individual departments within your corporate structure such as executive, legal, security and supporting entities to devise an “plan of action”. Your plan will include identifying potential risks, weaknesses and crises beforehand. We will provide a “template” or plan of action based on your specific corporate vulnerabilities as well as a post-crisis evaluation to assess what occurred and how to better address and prevent similar experiences in the future.
6. LITIGATION SUPPORT:
​
The success or failure of legal proceedings, be they formal litigation, arbitration or trial in state or federal court, depends directly on preparation, analysis and support beforehand. Our team of professionals can provide that critical investigative and analytical support and assistance. Investigative assistance could come in the form of evidence analysis, witness location and interviews, surveillance, polygraph examinations, or document examination.
Computer forensic analysis or “e-discovery” is cutting edge today for companies large and small to protect their trade secrets. The theft of Intellectual Property to include business plans, marketing materials, customer and vendor lists by hackers or disgruntled employees can be devastating to the economic viability of a company.
​
Our team of computer forensic investigators can drill down and determine if there has been a compromise in the integrity of your cyber-system. In all cases of evidence findings and analysis, those investigative findings can be supported by the appropriate testimony of one of our expert witnesses.
7. SECURITY THREAT ASSESSMENT:
Measures to counter fraud, corruption, money-laundering, terrorist financing and to maintain corporate transparency, a company’s reputation and the integrity of its executives are continually at stake in a global business world filled with ever changing risks and dynamics. Our team of professionals can provide consultation, expertise and investigations where necessary to detect, resolve and mitigate these 21st century corporate risks.
Even companies staffed with in-house security personnel can benefit from an outsourced, second analysis of a company’s potential risks and vulnerabilities. The documentation of a full and professional review of your security “blanket” can be an “insurance policy” and prove to be an invaluable asset in a possible lawsuit brought about by victims as a result of a security problem deemed to be the fault of your company. In today’s litigious world, an accident, crime, product sabotage, or workplace violence can cause your company to be the target of a plaintiff suit.
8. EXECUTIVE AND FAMILY PROTECTION DETAILS:
Our global team of Executive Protection professionals provide discreet and professional protection to top executives and their families while traveling on business or vacation/holiday in various locations in the world. Our teams are highly trained and have had prior career experience in the personal protection of high-level government officials and heads of state.
