Investigations That Bring Clarity, Fairness, and Confidence

Who Is This For?

A-HA’s investigation services are built for businesses, government agencies, universities, and care-based organisations who can’t afford missteps when issues arise. Whether you’re dealing with misconduct, grievances, policy breaches, or complex cultural complaints, we conduct fair, professional, and confidential investigations that protect people—and your organisation.

If you’re facing something that makes your stomach drop… we’ve been there. And we’ll help you through it.

Why Choose A-HA for Investigations?

With over a decade of experience across highly regulated, safety-sensitive, and high-stakes sectors, A-HA brings more than process—we bring wisdom. We know how to investigate with empathy, neutrality, and precision. You won’t get robotic reporting or cookie-cutter templates. You’ll get trusted guidance, a clear plan, and a resolution pathway you can stand behind.

We don’t just tick boxes. We restore confidence, stability, and respect in difficult moments.

What Can You Expect?

Independent Workplace Investigations

Misconduct, bullying, harassment, discrimination, fraud, performance concerns—handled with care and legal confidence.

Cultural or Thematic Reviews

When it’s not just one person or incident, but a pattern that needs unpacking.

Preliminary Assessments & Triage

When you’re unsure what’s happening or what level of response is appropriate.

Sensitive Interviews & Documentation

We manage difficult conversations professionally, discreetly, and ethically.

Clear, Legally Sound Reporting

We don’t just document—we provide findings, risk assessments, and next-step recommendations.

This isn’t a help desk. This is your HR, powered by A-HA.

How Does It Work?

We use our trusted 5D framework to guide every development solution:

1. Discover – Tune In

We start by understanding the issue, the context, and the impact. We gather documents, review the scope, and get crystal clear on the real concern.

2. Diagnose – Make Sense

We identify the key questions, evidence sources, and legal obligations. We map timelines, interview stakeholders, and begin assembling the pieces.

3. Design – Shape the Way

We craft an investigation plan that’s fit-for-purpose. Whether formal or preliminary, we build a structured, fair, and defensible approach.

4. Deliver – Shift What Matters

We run the investigation, manage communications, write findings reports, and present outcomes with clarity and confidence.

5. Dedicated – Stay Close

After the report is delivered, we’re still in your corner. We support internal next steps, recommend pathways forward, and offer 30, 60, and 90-day check-ins when needed.
