Movies and television often portray detectives as lone operatives who solve case after case on their own. Following target persons seems effortless: they never lose sight of the target and are never noticed; surveillance in large cities with constant traffic lights is no problem, and the perfect parking spot is always immediately found. In reality, especially in Cologne, vehicle surveillance is practically impossible over longer periods and distances – any driver will understand that. Glances in the rearview mirror, driving through quiet residential streets, turning in dead ends – sooner or later, a single observer will inevitably be noticed. Therefore, in almost all cases, it is strongly recommended to deploy at least a second observer from the Aaden Corporate Detective Agency Cologne, so both can coordinate and alternate. The challenge begins as soon as the target person is located: what if the building the target is about to leave has multiple exits? Or if the garage has two exits?
One investigator costs less than two. One detective is cheaper than two. Simple math. Equally: two investigators achieve higher productivity than a single one. To be successful as an observer or researcher, it is often necessary to work in a team.
To avoid being noticed, a lone investigator of the Aaden Corporate Detective Agency Cologne is strictly instructed to abort the assignment rather than risk discovery. If “exposed,” it usually ends the investigation. Further evidence collection would be hardly possible. Cutting personnel to save costs may seem efficient, but to achieve results, repeated deployments are required. On one-off opportunities, even this is not possible. Cutting corners at the wrong end can ultimately be very costly for the client.
