Diligence, LLC Expands Into the Middle East
Diligence, LLC announced today the establishment of a new subsidiary in the Middle East, focusing on security services for Iraq and growing the company's full array of information collection and analysis services in the Persian Gulf region.
The new subsidiary -- Diligence Middle East, LLC (DME) -- will build on the success of the firm's Baghdad office, which opened in July to provide security services to companies involved in Iraqi reconstruction.
Diligence's activities in Iraq have grown to encompass payroll protection and delivery around the country, personnel and facilities security, due diligence on potential Iraqi business partners and companies, screening of local potential hires, vetting, training and management of security personnel for guard work and close protection services, and the provision of daily intelligence briefs.
"We are able to provide the highest quality information and security work available in Iraq because we have a core staff of more than 150 Iraqis with local knowledge, operating as full time project managers, security trainers, intelligence officers and security staff," said Mike Baker, CEO of Diligence, LLC. "By doing so, we are creating a solid, long-lasting, truly Iraqi company with a vested interest in its own success."
