Major Investigations

Investigator is an ideal system to assist investigators working on complex, major investigations. These investigations are often undertaken by large teams that include investigators, crime analysts, intelligence analysts, and support staff.

Often they will be long duration murder or serial crime investigations, or investigations into highly complex organized crime.

Typically, major investigations produce huge amounts of evidence, much of which is seemingly unconnected to other evidence captured. Consider the types of information collected:

• witness reports,
• data that is incomplete (for example, the witness is unsure of the date, or time, or surname of a person),
• details of vehicles - maybe even a plate number,
• informant reports,
• cell phone and landline telephone calls,
• banking and other financial transactions,
• photographs,
• audio,
• video,
• descriptions of people - tattoos, hair color, height, etc.

Investigator provides the capability to proactively manage an investigation. Tasks can be assigned and monitored by a case supervisor. Investigators can share vital pieces of information with their colleagues, and Investigator helps all members of the investigation team make the relevant connections that can help close a case successfully, and more quickly.
