Queensland’s trusted regional investigation experts

RQI assists clients who need clear facts, independent evidence and practical investigative support. We are regularly engaged for sensitive matters where confidentiality, lawful process and accurate reporting are essential.

Our work includes workplace investigations, surveillance, corporate investigations, insurance claim investigations, factual enquiries, local government matters, serious misconduct investigations and private client investigations.

We understand that many clients come to us when the issue is urgent, reputationally risky, emotionally difficult or difficult to manage internally. RQI’s role is to assess the matter carefully, establish the facts and report clearly.

Built for regional Queensland

Regional investigations are different. Distances are greater, communities are closer, and operational decisions often need to account for travel, weather, rosters, terrain, local relationships, industry conditions and confidentiality risks.

When should you engage an investigator?

Many matters become harder to manage when action is delayed. Evidence can be lost, accounts can change, conflict can escalate and options can narrow.

You should consider speaking with RQI where:

  • A complaint or allegation needs independent review.
  • There are competing accounts and unclear facts.
  • Internal handling may create a conflict of interest.
  • The issue involves misconduct, fraud, bullying, harassment or governance concerns.
  • You require lawful surveillance or field enquiries.
  • A lawyer, insurer, board, employer or decision-maker requires evidence.
  • The matter is sensitive, urgent, reputationally risky or difficult to manage internally.
