We’re excited to announce the Investigations module — a starter kit for managing formal investigations from intake through resolution with comprehensive evidence chain-of-custody and audit controls.

What is the Investigations Module?

The Investigations module provides structured data capture for managing investigation cases, evidence, interviews, findings, and corrective actions. It enables organizations to maintain defensible investigation records, ensure evidence integrity through chain-of-custody tracking, document interview activities, analyze findings against policies and regulations, and monitor remediation through resolution with full audit trails and confidentiality controls.

Key capabilities include:

  • Intake and Case Management – Capture allegations from multiple sources, create investigation cases with classification and assignment, link related cases
  • Party and Location Tracking – Document subjects, reporters, witnesses, and impacted parties with role-based access and confidentiality controls
  • Evidence Management – Collect and categorize evidence items with rigorous chain-of-custody records, access logs, and storage location tracking
  • Interview Documentation – Schedule and document interview sessions with participant roles, transcripts, and supporting documentation
  • Investigation Planning – Define scope, objectives, methodology, milestones, and resource assignments for systematic investigations
  • Findings and Analysis – Record formal conclusions (substantiated, unsubstantiated, inconclusive) with evidence linkages and policy citations
  • Recommendations and Corrective Actions – Issue recommendations and track assigned remediation with owners, due dates, and completion verification
  • Recovery Tracking – Document financial recoveries, restitution payments, and asset forfeitures resulting from investigations
  • Reporting and Referrals – Produce formal investigation reports and manage referrals to internal or external authorities

What’s Included

This model-driven app starter kit includes:

  • 28 entities providing comprehensive investigation lifecycle management
  • Main forms and active views for case tracking, evidence management, interview documentation, and findings analysis
  • Sample data to demonstrate typical investigation scenarios including misconduct cases, evidence items, interviews, and corrective actions
  • Integration with Core module for persons, organizations, locations, documents, legal authorities, and compliance frameworks

The module provides implementors with a baseline investigation management application that can be customized for inspector general offices, internal affairs departments, compliance teams, ethics offices, fraud investigation units, safety investigation programs, quality assurance teams, and regulatory enforcement agencies.
