Detective audit

A detective is coming to you. HOW TO PROTECT A COMPANY FROM A DETECTIVE AUDIT?

A mess on the desk of a secretary or sales manager can cost a company a loss of a lucrative contract. How to organize work in order to avoid unwanted "leaks" that could affect the decision of a future counterparty to work with you or not, read this article

The customer turned to the detective with an order to check the counterparty, with whom it was planned to sign a long-term contract for the purchase and maintenance of sewing machines of a well-known brand. Soon, from the detective, he learned that the company does not employ 15 people, as he had been told earlier in the negotiations, but five, three of whom are close relatives to each other. Also, the customer became aware that the copyright holder of the trademark has banned the sale of sewing machines under his brand. And since the counterparty did not have other dealer contracts, he sold the remaining goods and thus tried to “stay afloat”. Naturally, in such an unfavorable state of economic affairs, there was no question of any service, and the customer made the only right decision in this situation - not to bind himself with any obligations to a company that is confidently sinking.

Loss of the buyer and direct losses - this is the main reason why an unscrupulous entrepreneur needs to be able to recognize the “soft intrusion” of a detective into his office, branch or warehouse on time. If the detective finds a way and enters the workroom with a detective audit, then he will examine every piece of paper on the secretary’s desk, each root of the folder in the bookkeeper’s cabinet, and will be able to find “incriminating evidence”.

But the “problems” are easy to avoid if you keep the cabinet in order. Read what to check in the workplace.

What detectives pay attention to in your office

Office door
The detective checks the correspondence of the inscription on the door plate with the company name of the company, as well as the printing quality of the sign.

Shelving with folders
Accountants often assign primary names, registers, etc. to folders. If a company has many counterparties, those responsible create a whole folder on which a sticker with the name of the company and year is pasted. If the folders are in an accessible place, the detective will surely find a way to photograph them. Keep folders with names on the cover in a limited access or use names without indicating the name of the company. Take measures to put documents in a blanket or hide folders behind a screen.

Computer
Detectives will not miss the moment so that during the inspection they do not get acquainted with the contents of the computer screen. This happens if the manager, in the presence of a detective, opens a warehouse inventory database or company presentation.

Paper documents
Staffing with their contact numbers can be located under glass or on the wall next to the workplace of the secretary. Information about how to quickly communicate with employees is always in sight, so the detective can take advantage of the secretary's carelessness to take a couple of photographs. The list of company employees with their contacts, keep in a closed desk drawer away from prying eyes.

The detective is interested in absolutely all the documents that can fall into the lens of his modest camera. For example, stickers, third-party papers, bills, letters, or signature contracts. Therefore, teach the employee to leave only documents with which he is currently working on the table. It is better if the papers are not lying in plain sight, but in a folder. When you need to leave the office, the responsible employee must put the documents in the storage location - desk drawer, cupboard or safe. If detectives find other people's documents, they will begin to establish relationships between companies, try to build business logistics, the names of counterparties, and also allow detectives to track operations on the accounts of organizations.

Drafts
Detectives can find draft documents in trash cans. In one case, detectives found in the corridor next to the shredder statements on stock balances. According to the companies indicated in the documents, detectives were able to restore the structure of the holding, the addresses of warehouses, responsible persons and specialization. There are times when documents that are no longer used in the work go to drafts. They are put in the printer for printing. It is dangerous to do so if the documents contain commercial or personal data. Such papers cannot be used as drafts. They need to be destroyed so that the information can no longer be read, for example, using a shredder.

Seals
Detectives seek to discover imprints of stamps and seals. This will allow you to check the details of the company, as well as to compare the received impressions with those available to the customer.

Correspondence and electronic documents
Check the documents that you send to contractors by email. In the “Properties” tab of electronic documents, traces of the name of the company, the name of the author and other data may remain. Detectives are required to analyze this important information to conclude that there are signs of preparation for a formal transaction.

Flash drives
It’s risky to transmit information to the detective on electronic media. A detective can ask him to transfer company certificates, certificates, licenses, statutory documents and other large files to him, and the manager, due to his carelessness, will copy files with official information in addition.

A good "selection" of possible sources of information .... What you need to pay attention to both the "verifier" and the "verifiable"))) Although this "list" can be supplemented)))

 

[Группа К]

Andrey Valerievich! The list is open)) The moderator does not mind

 

[Андрей Захаров]

The "list" of measures to collect information regarding the object of inspection depends on many circumstances ... including the specific task, as well as the location of the object, its functionality (checking the location of the work office or storage or shipment of goods, etc.). .. The "list" of events will vary in this case ... From fixing vehicles standing near the office (or places of shipment of goods, including loading), surveys of "neighbors" at the location of the office or places of shipment, etc. to more specific activities related to the establishment of tacit "contact" with the employees of the "facility" .... So it is quite difficult and troublesome to make a "universal" list-plan .... In this regard, each object of verification has its own list events ....)))

 

[Андрей Захаров]

Here, for example, we have developed and applied an action plan for preliminary "exploration" of an industrial and wholesale object ...
EXAMPLE PLAN
on organizing the collection of information at industrial and wholesale facilities

1. Possible ways to obtain information:
visual observation
-Oral poll
-examination of documents
-external inspection of buildings, structures, premises and other objects
2. Possible ways of fixing information:
audio recording
video recording
photographing
3. measures that must be taken to organize the collection of information and determine the best option for their receipt.
- Establishing the possibility of obtaining information of interest through publicly available information channels (Internet, media, etc.).
-identification of persons who are owners, managers of the object (via the Internet, a survey)
-the establishment of the staffing of the enterprise (Internet, survey). As part of the implementation of these measures, it is necessary to focus on identifying possible sources of information-acquaintances.
- Establishment of contact details of the object (websites, Internet pages, landline and cell phone numbers) (survey, Internet)
-establishment of the transport of an object (survey, visual observation)
- Establishing the procedure for conducting operations to document the production process (receipt of goods, their vacation) (survey)
-identification of persons involved in paperwork at various stages of the production process (survey)
- Establishment of the fact that the company introduced the regime of "commercial secret" (survey)
-the establishment of the facts of maintaining a special regime for the protection of the facility, the use of video surveillance systems, access control with the fixation of visitors (survey, visual observation)
-conducting reconnaissance on the ground in order to determine the most suitable option for visual observation of the facility. Establishing storage and dispensing specific types of goods, access to storage facilities, administrative premises. (external inspection, survey).
-identification of persons dismissed from this organization for their possible use to obtain the necessary information (online posting of a resume, survey)
- Establishment of the organization’s needs in hiring new employees for the possible use of those to obtain the necessary information (online posting of job announcements, survey)
- Establishment of the fact of presence-absence at the facility of copying equipment and persons having access to it (survey, external examination)
-establishment of persons most frequently visiting the facility who are not full-time employees of the facility (survey, visual observation)
-establishing the intensity of operations for the release of goods (survey)
-establishing the possibility of obtaining the necessary information using communications (telephone, fax, etc.) (survey)
- Establishment of a circle of persons who are not full-time employees of the facility, but who can receive information through their friends who work at the facility (survey)
After clarification of these circumstances, a plan of specific measures is drawn up to obtain information of interest. The plan is also used to draw up a calculation of possible costs for the customer to collect the necessary information.

Dear Colleagues!
In continuation of my previous post on this topic, I give a link to a source where the topic "DETECTIVE AUDIT" was already discussed at the Forum in our alternative information resource from 03/03/2013 to 04/15/2015.
Program for detectives "Detective Audit"
So, a respected author, walks with his idea all the time in a circle and tries to trade not even “last year’s snow”, but goods that have been four years old ...

That's right, Konstantin. It was in December 2013 that the first working release of the Detective Audit program for iOs was released - an automated complex for verifying a business partner. The program has been free for three years now, and anyone can download it. But can it be called paid if it has always been free to download, and its paid (optional) mode, which “pulls up” the data directly from the Federal State Statistics Service and analyzes it, cost 160 rubles in my opinion. In the free first mode, the user received the GMC data always for free! Compare with the advanced version of SPARK or Interfax, for example, and feel the difference

I could not find money to finalize the program in my wallet (and this is about 2 million rubles), and now you will not find altruistic programmers in the afternoon with fire. But he listened to a lot of criticism.

So it (the program) lies on the server unfinished, much to my regret. But Detective Audit became the topic of my dissertation, which I continue to work on. By the way, if you remember, recently I announced the release of the latest scientific article on detective audit methods - click on the download link in the cyber lenk

Thanks for the link to my topic. I read it was nice to remember past battles
