International
Investigative
Capabilities
Profitable global marketing requires the support of
strong international market and business intelligence combined with
comprehensive investigative capabilities. However, you may find it uneconomical
to maintain a large staff of international investigators or impractical to
request information from your company’s overseas affiliates already committed
to daily assignments. We remove the difficulties associated with administering
international human intelligence investigations. Our international assignments
are made possible by a unique joint venture between Charles, Charles &
Associates and Kinsinger, Wetzel & Associates.
KWA – Kinsinger,
Wetzel and Associates is a Phoenix-based consulting firm specializing in global
business intelligence. Its clients are in management consulting, telecommunications,
computers and software, aerospace, environmental technologies, healthcare
and public safety, and entertainment. Bringing
unique value to the firm, KW&A principal Paul Kinsinger has developed and
teaches one of the few full-time MBA-level courses on business intelligence –
a course in which he has supervised class projects for several Fortune 500
companies. With more than seven hundred international graduates who now live and
work in diverse industries all over the globe, KW&A has a powerful and
growing network that it leverages.
CCA/KW&A – Together,
CCA and KW&A perform on a team basis, a concept designed to ensure that our
resources are synergistic and tailored to meet the needs of our clients. We
employ native-language investigators who share the same cultural background as
our panel of experts. These investigators are well-trained using CCA’s
state-of-the-art training procedures in the art of interviewing as well as the
specific technology and services addressed in the investigation. Our
investigators are selected on a project-by-project basis depending on their
capabilities to meet CCA’s high quality investigative standards and their
ability to meet the needs of our clients. We have the experts to conduct our
international investigations and we achieve levels of reliability and accuracy
as those obtained in similar domestic investigations. With our method of
centrally coordinated and controlled in-depth Delphi panel investigations, we
ensure compatibility of information across countries.
It is our belief that costly marketing mistakes arising from poor understanding of foreign business practices and cultural milieu can be avoided by utilizing the talents of our international staff of qualified bilingual investigators with significant overseas experience in Europe, Asia/Pacific, South America and Africa.
