The Challenge

A real estate developer in Jaipur noticed that their bids for a major infrastructure project were being undercut by the exact same margin in repeated tender rounds.

The CEO suspected the executive boardroom was no longer private.

2

The Problem

Luxury real estate offices often feature carved wood, false ceilings, and heavy drapery that provide ideal concealment for both hidden cameras and audio recorders.

  • Audio transmitter detection during negotiation phases.
  • Hidden camera detection aimed at blueprint designs and financial projections.
  • Threats for corporate integrity linked to tender losses.

The Solution

  • Installed ultrasonic audio masking devices.
  • Audited physical access logs and upgraded security guard protocols.
  • Established a bi-annual TSCM service agreement.
6

Outcome

With the boardroom secured, the developer finalized strategy in confidence and went on to win the subsequent government tender.
