Surveillance is the monitoring of behavior without the target being made aware that they are being monitored, and tailing is a specific method of following an individual to gather information about their activities.Surveillance serves many purposes, and it is a more simplistic way to gather information about a person without raising any red flags or making them aware that someone is looking into their daily life.
Maybe you just want to get a sense of how someone is spending their day? Or you think your spouse isn't being honest about his whereabouts? Maybe you want to find out what your competitors are up to? Or find out if your employees really are sick when they call in with a sore throat? Or you need to keep watch on your child. Surveillance can come in handy for a number of reasons, and the investigators at VIS are experienced in all of them.

1. What kind of information is required to be given to start the case?
We would at least need subject's name, address & photo, at least. Further details such as vehicle details, employment address, etc would be useful. In case, if the address is not available, we can get the same, provided you have some basic input. Further, we request you to put any additional info / notes / background on the case which may come handy to us while carrying out surveillance.
2. For what timeframe you follow the subject?
Timeframe depends upon the requirement. At times, we start as early as 4 in the morning to as late as post mid-night. Every case is unique and demands custom timeframe, hence we plan our surveillance in line with your case requirement.
3. Would subject come to know that he/she is being followed by you?
Absolutely, not. Confidentiality and discreetness are main foundation for any private investigation agency. The vehicle as well as investigation team rotates at required intervals to avoid any suspicious by the subject. Our investigators are trained to rotate positions of visual contact with the subject. This type of surveillance measure reduces the exposure the investigators experience with the subject.
4. What are the deliverables in surveillance service?
A detail surveillance report which includes places visited by the subject, people met, activities, etc along with pictures (photos) and videos. Click here to check our Sample Surveillance Report. At any point of time, you can call your case manager to get instant update / location of the subject.
At times, client may need an immediate alarm in case of particular situation being trigged. For example, when the subject goes to hotel room with his / her partner. We are more than happy to accommodate any such request.
