Competitive Intelligence Research

in-depth market insight

Competitive intelligence offers a real strategic advantage for your organisation. It helps understand how your company fits into the market in terms of your products, services and customer needs. Most importantly it helps to you to interpret information essential to your growth and survival.

CI can also examine other factors such as market structure, African and other international opportunities, government regulations, economic trends, technological advances, and numerous other fundamentals that make up the business environment.

Many organisations have some sort of knowledge about their competitors, often sitting somewhere in a database.

However, if the knowledge gathered is not usable (or actionable) then it is useless. The objective of CI is to facilitate better decision-making and processes, and to provide an insightful platform for decision makers.


From information to intelligence, insight and action.Research is a core function of our business and we have one of the leading research teams in South Africa.
