PICA's diverse group of full-time professionals is a hand-picked team of experts comprising former local, state, federal and foreign law enforcement officers, attorneys, corporate loss prevention managers and Certified Protection Professionals (CPPs), all dedicated to returning measurable value, ROI and "best of class" service to our elite list of international clients.

Each member of the team has been carefully selected from a very large pool of candidates based on their education, experience, written skills, references and investigative acumen. And because many PICA agents are multi-lingual, PICA can conduct investigations in over 20 languages, including French, Italian, Dutch, Spanish, Chinese (Mandarin and Cantonese), Korean, Vietnamese, Japanese, Russian and Portuguese. All PICA investigators are fully licensed and insured in their respective areas, and have undergone extensive background checks.
