Before a formal investigation you might do some preliminary checking around to verify that what someone's telling you is worth investigating further.\n\nIs this what you mean? (Unclear question.)

Probably depends a lot on the facts of the situation, the resources used for the investigation, etc. Hard to say.

The preliminary investigation, or feasibility study, is a brief study of the problem area.The purpose of this investigation is to define and evaluate the problem at hand quickly, to see if it is worthy of further study, and to suggest some possible courses of action. \nThe main output of this step is the feasibility report.\n\nThe steps involved in Preliminary Investigation:\n  \na) Understand the problems: Analyze the problem statement, Identify affected groups, understand the current system and its interaction with other systems, develop the business profile of the company\n\nb) Project Scope and constraints Identify System Boundaries, and constraints. Identify what is a part of our system and what is to be excluded.\n\nc) Determine Feasibility: The three types of feasibility (Operational Feasibility,Technical Feasibility,Economic Feasibility) must be done. The one that will be done now, is that; the former is done by the SRC, and the later by the System Analyst\n\nd) Estimate time and cost to continue development: This activity involves a complete Project cost and time estimate. Here the analyst will use SW Engineering techniques like FPA, line of code based estimation techniques and others, to give a precise estimate. \n\ne) Present Results and recommendations to Management: This will be in form of a formal document called Preliminary Investigation Report. It will have the following sections: \n\nIntroduction \nSystem Request Summary: This section will include SRF, and a brief discussion on the reasons for a system request \nFindings : This will include the outcome of the fact finding phase. \nRecommendations: This will include System Analyst's recommendations. Each recommendation should be followed by its justification. \nTime and Cost estimates: This will include a detailed calculation of the Time and Project size estimates, and the methodologies used for estimates. \nExpected benefits to the company: This section is the most important section. A non-technical manager may only read this section. In this section the System Analyst must be very convincing. This Manager of the company will probably decided the system's fate based on this section. \nAppendix: Appendix will contain all the supporting documents (e.g. questionnaire, forms etc. ), and definition of all the related terms.

Investigative work: 1. gather all the info you can on it - where it was done (city), events in his life at the time, anything. 2. get people who did see it to do a picture of it - maybe get a bunch of samples and get them to choose the closest one. 3. go see (don't call) some old timers (your dad's age or older) who have been in the business for a long time. They will provide a wealth of info - things popular at the time, etc. etc. The in-person thing is the key. Experienced people want to share stuff w younger people - they are usually just amazed if younger people are interested at all. If it's a heart-string-pulling kind of story, they'll be all over it. Also, ask them for ideas about how to track down where it was done. Detective work.
