Managed Investigations

You set the investigation terms. We manage the investigations process. 

When your organisation wants to retain control of an investigation but needs expert support to manage it effectively, Safecall’s managed investigation service offers the ideal solution. 

You define the scope and terms of reference. We take care of the day-to-day management – ensuring your investigation is thorough, proportionate, and compliant, while your team retains full oversight. 

What is a managed investigation? 

Managed investigations are a collaborative approach where your team conducts the investigation, and Safecall provides expert oversight. We guide you through each stage, helping ensure your process is fair, thorough, and aligned with best practice. 

This approach is ideal when: 

  • You have internal capability but want external assurance 
  • You need to maintain control while accessing expert support 
  • You’re managing sensitive issues and want to reduce risk 
  • You want to follow best practice without outsourcing the full process
