FAQs

If I'm a Risk Consultancy, can I use Ground Truth to streamline my own information sources?

Yes. Ground Truth supports many advisory firms, risk consultancies, and investigators. We help them ensure they have access to the best-possible information flows for their requirement, so that they can focus on what they do best: analysis and advice.

Does Ground Truth provide access to other related services such as security, forensic accounting or commercial due diligence?

While such services do not form the core of the Ground Truth network offering - which is focused on more mainstream corporate intelligence and investigations services - our network does include independent consultants and boutique consultancies that also provide security consulting, forensic accounting, and commercial competitor and market intelligence in certain jurisdictions. We are always happy to assist in those cases where our network partners have these capabilities.

What about investigative / desktop research expertise?

The Ground Truth network includes numerous independent consultants and consultancies who also provide desktop-based research services, either on a standalone basis or in support of other, human network based services they provide. This desktop research provision is comprehensive in that it not only covers a broad array of jurisdictions and languages, but is also specialised according to services such as asset tracing, integrity due diligence, and political risk analysis.

Does Ground Truth obtain public information (media, social, public records)?

Yes. Ground Truth's platform provides access to an international network of providers of publicly-sourced information, including, but not limited to, public registries and databases, social and other open source media.

What types of people are in the network?

Our invitation-only network has more than 1,500 Network Partners, covering over 200 countries, territories and jurisdictions. They come from backgrounds including journalism, business, law, government, law enforcement, public affairs, research, investigations and consulting. All are highly experienced in their niche within the intelligence and investigations information chain. They also share in common their professionalism, agility and a commitment to providing high quality information and analysis in a timely, cost-effective manner, and with full commitment to our Code of Conduct.

Who sees the project requirements that we upload? Is it a mass mail out to a virtual jobs board, or does Ground Truth carefully control who sees the project brief?

Ground Truth's platform is the antithesis of an open jobs board. Project requirements are only shared with Network Partners once a GT staff member has carefully compared the project requirements against the qualifications and expertise of our network partner database. Once we have identified a match, we then share the project requirements on a no-names basis with the Network Partner we have carefully selected as being the best fit for the task. If they agree to take on the project and are accepted by the client then that is the only Network Partner who is ever made aware of the project requirements.
