ARE YOU ASKING THE RIGHT QUESTIONS?

OUR EXPERTISE

  • Global Scout partners with leadership teams to translate complex geopolitical dynamics into actionable supply-chain strategies and growth roadmaps. We map critical nodes and dependencies across your global supply lines, assess supplier resilience, and stress-test logistics networks against scenario-based disruptions. By combining human-source insights with probabilistic forecasting and bespoke risk models, we uncover hidden opportunities, quantify emerging threats, and guide you in prioritizing investments-so you can optimize sourcing, enter new markets confidently, and safeguard operations against evolving geostrategic risks.

  • Critical intelligence—marked by timeliness, relevance, trustworthiness, and exclusivity—can often only be attained through physical proximity Global Scout leverages our discreet in-country human networks for in-depth interviews, stakeholder mapping, site visits to capture organic insights. Our seasoned senior analysts can also translate raw data into strategic recommendations, ensuring you act on rigorously vetted ground-truth intelligence rather than second-hand narratives others are relying on.

  • OSINT and privacy are two sides of the same coin and we specialize in both ‘offensive’ intelligence gathering and defensive counter-OSINT and privacy solutions. Our offensive OSINT combines advanced digital collection which can be complimented by human-led verification and on-the-ground corroboration to surface the most relevant, trustworthy and exclusive insights. On the defensive side, we conduct privacy audits and advise on secure communications and anonymization strategies to reduce your digital signature. Whether you’re conducting due diligence, supporting fraud investigations, monitoring emerging risks or protecting a high profile individual, our integrated approach ensures you uncover hidden connections, validate assumptions and protect sensitive information.

  • Global Scout helps organizations anticipate and prepare for potential disruptions through comprehensive contingency planning and immersive table top exercises. We design realistic, scenario-driven playbooks, facilitate multi-stakeholder table tops to stress-test decision workflows, and iterate plans based on candid after-action reviews. This ensures your leadership and response teams are battle-ready to manage crises and maintain continuity under pressure.
