Inspection and Investigation

The area is dedicated to systematically gaining information, ascertaining the truth, answering questions, and solving problems through thorough examination and evaluation of evidence. Its core purpose is to ensure accuracy, enforce compliance, maintain quality control, and promote accountability by uncovering, verifying, and documenting facts. Inspection activities focus on evaluating systems, products, processes, and facilities to verify compliance with established standards, identify deficiencies, and ensure quality assurance. This includes pre-inspection planning, on-site assessments, and the use of specialized testing methods and performance evaluations to ensure systems are functioning properly. Inspectors gather data through visual examinations, measurements, and sampling while reviewing documentation for regulatory adherence. Investigation activities involve systematically collecting and analyzing evidence to determine the facts surrounding incidents, disputes, or potential misconduct. This includes conducting background checks, interviews, surveillance, and forensic analysis, along with preserving physical, digital, and documentary evidence. Investigators interpret patterns, assess credibility, and compile findings into detailed reports, presenting causation analysis and recommendations for corrective measures.
