REFERENCES
The agency does not have a client list available simply because we offer clients full confidentiality. However, many of our investigations have received media coverage and so we can give those as references.
General references on our history, status and reputation can be obtained from the following 2 independent bodies:
The Security Association of South Africa - + 27 11 828 5314
The Security Industry Regulatory Authority - + 27 11 337 5500 (We have been registered with the SIRA since it's inception as the SOB in 1991, registration No. 008642)
Also, many of our clients are willing to give references, and if required we will obtain these for prospective clients.
Also see our list of memberships of professional associations. Memberships
