Corporate intelligence for decisions that cannot rely on assumption.
A national consultancy combining licensed investigation, structured intelligence analysis and a distinctive Visual Intelligence practice for boards, legal counsel, government and complex commercial matters.
A single practice, structured around the questions that matter.
Sceáwian is engaged when the answer must be defensible, not merely credible.
Corporate Investigations
Discreet enquiry into complex commercial matters, internal misconduct, integrity breaches and disputes requiring evidence that will stand.
OSINT and Digital Intelligence
Structured collection and analysis across open sources, digital footprints and adversary networks, lawfully obtained and defensibly recorded.
Due Diligence
Pre transaction, counterparty and reputational enquiry for boards, investors and legal advisers making high conviction decisions.
Fraud and Procurement Integrity
Detection, tracing and reconstruction of fraudulent conduct across supplier chains, contract awards and financial controls.
Litigation Support
Evidence collection, witness location, forensic reconstruction and exhibit quality dossiers prepared to legal standard.
Risk Advisory
Threat, integrity and geopolitical risk advice for executives, boards and infrastructure operators.
Visual Intelligence. Evidence rendered unambiguous.
Most intelligence firms deliver documents. Sceáwian delivers dossiers a tribunal, a board or a claims adjuster can see. Our Visual Intelligence practice combines evidence photography, high end video, licensed drone operations, geospatial context, mapping, timelines, repeat site documentation and photogrammetry ready capture.
- Chain of custody photography and video calibrated for exhibit use
- Licensed drone operations for site, asset and environmental documentation
- Geospatial overlays, timelines and reconstructed sequences
- Repeat site captures for temporal comparison and progression evidence
- Photogrammetry ready capture for downstream 3D reconstruction
from every angle.
