1. Decision and purpose
We define what the client is going to decide, the exposure, the deadline and the legitimate purpose. Without a relevant and proportional relationship, the case does not advance.
2. Subject and perimeter
We identify exactly the person, company, property or operation and establish jurisdictions, period and questions that are part of the scope.
3. Minimum data
We request only what is necessary to resolve identity, evaluate hypotheses and document the decision. Sensitive files are provided by their owner through a private channel.
4. Risk hypothesis
Each query answers a specific question: identity, powers, observable capacity, conflict, contingency, guarantee or material reputation. We do not accumulate data without purpose.
5. Source plan
We assigned official, primary, secondary, or open sources to each hypothesis and recorded availability, coverage, date, and limitations.
6. Identity resolution
We normalize names and compare RFCs, folios, location, dates, positions or other legitimate identifiers. A name match is never sufficient to attribute an adverse finding.
7. Traceable collection
We keep the reference, date of consultation and relevant support. We do not promise access to secretive systems or present a private or secondary source as if it were official.
8. Corroboration
We compare documents and independent sources. We separate demand for judgment, allegation of confirmed fact, historical writing of current registration status and digital presence of operational capacity.
9. Analysis
Every material point follows the chain data → finding → interpretation → implication → recommendation. This way we prevent a capture or match from becoming an automatic conclusion.
10. Certainty, materiality and coverage
We do not use pseudoscientific scores. Certainty describes the strength of the evidence; materiality, its effect on the decision; coverage, which could really be reviewed.
- Certainty: confirmed, corroborated, requires context, unresolved or insufficient evidence.
- Materiality: no material finding, attention, material risk or escalation/failure to proceed under current information.
- Coverage: adequate, partial or insufficient. Gray means lack of information, not low risk.
11. Contradiction and right of clarification
When a finding warrants it, we ask for additional context or support. The answer is incorporated or kept as an open point; We never hide uncertainty.
12. Report and quality control
A human review confirms identity, consistency, wording, boundaries, and relationship to the decision. The client receives Executive Decision, risk dimensions, findings, inconsistencies, conditions, evidence matrix and express reservations.
