Internal investigations rarely proceed on a straight line. There are twists and turns, and sometimes a need for a switch, or even two. First, from an in-house investigation to one conducted using an outside resource. And, at times, there may be a need to even switch outside investigators.

Scott Moritz, Senior Managing Director at FTI Consulting, explains in this podcast what to consider when making a transition. He discusses when the time is right to bring in an outside firm, or maybe switch the firm you are using.

He also provides insight into what it takes to get an outside investigative firm up to speed. That includes not just a recap of the facts on hand. Corporate cultural factors and internal policies are important to share as well to ensure that the investigation flows smoothly and doesn’t cause problems of its own.

In addition, it is critical, as always, to be mindful of the impact an investigation can have on productivity and morale.
