Intelligence production is the process of converting information into intelligence. It involves integrating, evaluating, analyzing and interpreting information from all available sources in order to produce finished intelligence that is reliable, valid, timely and relevant.

Evaluating Information and Sources

The first step in the production phase is evaluation. This is the assessment of information for pertinence, accuracy, credibibility and source reliability.

Research and Analysis

Expert research and analysis for data mining, processing, evaluation and interpretation. Industry-leading data processing and analysis capabilities coupled with our client-tailored approach to each project ensures that we can produce the data, when you need it and the way you need it. Our R&A consultants will help you interpret your data and make recommendations as to what decisions will bring you closest to your objectives.

We possess subject matter expertise in the following analytical fields:

• Pattern identification
• Predictive analytics
• Predatory behavioral analysis
• Data management
