What Is Intelligence Gathering?
Intelligence gathering is the systematic collection and analysis of information to uncover facts, verify claims and support informed decision‑making. In the private investigation context, this may involve open‑source research, surveillance, interviews and covert operations. Like all investigative work in Australia, intelligence activities must comply with state licensing and legal frameworks ensuring evidence is collected ethically and remains admissible if required in court.
At The Find Group, our intelligence services are designed to provide clarity in complex situations. We support law firms, insurers, corporations and private clients by delivering reliable, actionable insights.

How much does it cost to engage an investigator?
In most circumstances hourly rates are applied and in the case of surveillance this also includes the agent’s costs of travelling to and from a location and whilst conducting observations.
Background Investigations are often based on an initial set fee or budget with scope for further work if required.
Other offenses may require a more tailored approach and cost application which we would normally address based on the specific requirements.
