About our services
Our services support departments and public bodies to reduce the impact of fraud against government.
We work with a range of organisations who need services to prioritise and boost their counter fraud work.
Data Analytics Service
Our team of digital and data professionals use cutting-edge technologies to deliver pilots (proof-of-concepts) and fully managed programmes using the latest advances in cloud computing and AI, transforming the government’s approach to countering fraud using data.
National Fraud Initiative (NFI)
The NFI matches data within and between public and private sector bodies to prevent and detect fraud. It offers services to central and local government, wider public bodies, and the private sector. More information about the range of services.
Single Network Analytics Platform (SNAP)
SNAP creates a comprehensive picture of organisations and its connections by bringing together multiple data sources and insights. It allows public bodies and economic crime partners to then identify potential fraud enabling appropriate action to be taken. It can be deployed in interactions between government and external organisations, including within grants, procurement, loans and licences. It can identify potential fraudulent activity including shell companies, undisclosed relationships, and connections to serious and organised crime.
Debt and Fraud Powers of the Digital Economy Act (DEA)
The DEA is data-sharing legislation that enables public bodies to share their data, improving how they manage and reduce debt and to combat fraud against the public sector. Our DEA experts can provide support to develop data sharing pilot proposals to share data under the Digital Economy Act 2017.
Internal Fraud Hub (IFH)
The IFH team works with participating organisations who provide details of civil servants who have been dismissed for committing internal fraud, or who would have been dismissed had they not resigned. Participating government organisations search the IFH during pre-employment checks to detect instances where known fraudsters on the IFH are attempting to reapply for roles in the Civil Service.
Risk, Threat and Prevention Service
Our Risk, Threat and Prevention professionals can provide expert advice on how fraudsters attack government schemes and how your organisation can better protect itself. They can support by producing or updating Initial Fraud Impact Assessments (IFIA) or Full Fraud Risk Assessments (FRA) and provide advice on controls. Our team has oversight of fraud risk across government through the High Fraud Risk Portfolio (HFRP).
Enforcement and Intelligence Service
Our Enforcement and Intelligence Service can provide tailored support to departments and public bodies. Our experts can provide advice on potential or live fraud investigations, manage investigations into allegations of fraud, deploy a full range of civil tools and techniques to recover losses and support the development of good intelligence handling protocols.
Investigation Curriculum
We have created an investigation curriculum in support of the Professional Standards and Guidance: Counter Fraud Investigator. The Curriculum details the knowledge requirements for the Category C Counter Fraud Investigator for England and Wales. It is intended to assist training providers and practitioners understand the core knowledge requirements by providing a more detailed document. Contact us for more information.
