Clue® Sentinel Fraud is a powerful investigative tool that provides ALL of the administrative facilities required for the effective management of complex fraud investigations, enabling Fraud Squad Officers to manage the wide variety of fraud cases that are encountered. Close liaison with several Fraud Squads during the development process has ensured that this system supports all of the processes involved in a fraud investigation.
The Fraud module can be used in combination with any or all of the Clue® Sentinel resources, allowing the investigator to record all documents and information associated with a fraud investigation, from Exhibits to Witness Statements. Clue® Sentinel Fraud can be used in conjunction with Clue® Counsel to provide swift and comprehensive court case preparation; all data entered in the Fraud module can be used by Clue® Counsel to produce the necessary forms and reports associated with getting a case file ready for court.
Clue® Sentinel Fraud provides these facilities:
Complete support for running a fraud investigation is provided. A complete history of the operation including a summary of reports, reviews, policies and results can be viewed whenever required. For each operation a wide range of information can be recorded, including the following: operation name or number, operation start date, current status of the operation and a history of each previous status, crime reference number, source of the operation, reason for starting the operation and the estimated value of the operation.
The Fraud module allows the investigator to keep a complete record of all reports, reviews and policy decisions associated with an operation. For each report, the date of the report and its details can be recorded. Details of all reviews linked to the initial report can then be entered including the following: type of review, persons present, and the priority and the date of the next review. Any policies decided at the review can be recorded.
Keeping track of the results of any fraud investigation is obviously extremely important and the Clue® Sentinel Fraud module provides complete facilities for doing so. For each "result" a wide range of information can be recorded including the name, address and date of birth of the person apprehended or arrested, the nature of the offence, the decision made by the police regarding whether or not to prosecute and the decision made by the court, including details of the sentence or fine as appropriate.
Clue® Sentinel Fraud also provides a very useful Case Acceptance guide. This allows the investigator to specify a wide range of details relating to the investigation. These details are then used to calculate a score, which can be used to decide whether or not to proceed with the investigation.
In addition, any of the Clue® Sentinel Resources can be used to record these details:
