Gentlemen,
As you may realize, many businesses today are finding it.
harder to maintain profit margins due to the rapid inflation
of operating costs. But there are other factors, such as
inadequate systems protection, dishonest employees, etc.
which can cut into a company's profits. By analyzing your
business operations a~d making personnel inquiries, I can
provide you with factual information as to why and where
your losses are occ.urring.
My professional staff and I possess extensive experience
in conducting systematic inquiries, internal and external
su rveys, and polygraph exam inations. We wi lip rovide you
with cost effective, quality services that will be structured
to fit your individual needs.
How can we de this? By completely learning your systems

ment of systems and controls as well as customer and em-
ployee relations.
The following explanatlons will detail the type of services
we provide:
Polygraph Examinatien
The polygraph, or lie detector, is utilized to determine the
honesty of an appllcant or employee. It is a very sensitive
recording device which notes physiological changes that occur
in the body of a pe rson attempt lng decept ion. The re are th ree
primary polygraph examinations. The ~re-Emel~'22!.!'~ T!..!!.
is .designed to assist the employer in determining an applicant's

standards. The S-ee.=ifLc_Iesj: is to be uti lized to determine the
involvement (or lack of involvement) of personnel concerning a
specific loss. At no time will a polygraph examiner ask a trick
or surprise question or a question which may invade a person's
privacy. All examinatians will be accompanied by a thorough
explanation and orientation of the test, and each person will
sign a release form to ensure their awareness of civil and per-
sonal rights. The examiner supplies; all facts and information
to the employer, who makes the decis(()ns regarding an indivi- '
dual's employment.

In this operation, profe'ssionally trained individuals will work
under'cover as employees to spot theft or fraud, suggest im-
provements in management/staff work methods and observe
other potential troublesome areas. They wi 11 provl"de me with

for your examination.

To Whom it may Concern:
It has been my pleasure to work with Vashtie Dowdy for the last 8 years.
During that time Mrs. Dowdy has supervised the entire maintenance staff,
including day crew and night crew personnel. Her work is first class and
professional in every manner.
.'
I am convinced that without her supervisory abilities, her close attention
to detail, and her caring attitude about the job, the quality of main-
tenance service would suffer considerably.
She is an asset to Central City Mall and the City of San Bernardino.
I have no reservations in giving her my highest recommendation. Please
do not hesitate to contact me if you wish to discuss her abilities
further.
Yours truly,
~~.~
