8. If you are victims of ORC: • You have assets that a lot of people want (demand) • Your assets will bring enough income to the bad guys that its worth their risk • You have weaknesses that criminals have learned to exploit • Your company probably can’t afford the magnitude of loss

9. What doesn’t work • Reactive, single dimensional approach • The repetition of crimes will cause serious hemorrhaging within your organization • You need the big picture to understand ORC • You will never get ahead of the bad guys

10. What doesn’t work • Just filing a police report • Most ORC investigations are too big and complicated for law enforcement to understand without your help • Cross-jurisdictional lines • Many agencies can’t support the heavy demand of extra investigative time • Doing nothing (S.O.S.)

11. What will work… Some companies are fighting back by forming specialized investigative teams that: • Do the groundwork necessary to justify a strong law enforcement response • Work closely with law enforcement to penetrate the criminal organization and take out its leadership (head of the snake)

12. Effective ORC investigative teams must have: • The right fundamentals • Labor resources • Sound methodology • Proper training • Useful technologies

13. Fundamentals • A good understanding of the issues • Support from upper management • Expectation of excellence across the program

14. Labor resources • The roles • Analyst • Specialist • Field management • Corporate management • The right people with “big case” experience and a heart for the work • Start small to ensure early success

15. Sound methodology • Determine your definition of major crimes and establish parameters • Set aside and record incidents • Gathering and Analyzing. ORC investigations are intelligence-driven
