Competitive Intelligence = Intelligent Business Decision

Commercial Business Intelligence works on an extremely confidential basis with only one client in any single technology category, avoiding conflicts of interest. We practice full disclosure, and we adhere to the ethical guidelines of the Society of Competitive Intelligence Professionals (SCIP), of which we are a member in good standing. Your name will never be used as a reference, in a war story to another client, in the press, in our publications, or to our contract employees. Think of it as attorney-client privilege.

Many organizations forget the usefulness of the road less traveled. By using the internet, you understand this philosophy. Your decision to contact us shows you are willing to look at unconventional sources for information and trends. CBI also understands that there are other roads to success and solutions. Although rote research methodology and checklists are acceptable for most competitive intelligence information, we're not afraid to take an unexpected route.

We have expertise in acquisition due diligence, unusual research requests, surveillance, market analysis, and technology piracy stings. To assist clients' hiring process, our pre-employment division accesses civil and criminal databases. As a bonus, we can also review your employee database for those having ownership in competing businesses or those developing parallel technologies. We can also conduct customer and prospect surveys.

Some clients never think to look at a company's principals and relationships as indicators of past and future performance, as well as unacceptable risk assumption. A legitimate-sounding company run by illegitimate business persons can spell t-r-o-u-b-l-e. Tax liens, past civil litigation, and related criminal enterprises are more common than you might think. Our ability to search nationwide civil, criminal, and federal courts in under a week puts us far ahead of our competition.

Maybe you need information quickly for a business meeting or pending deal: No problem. We can usually pull up a complex and thorough profile, anywhere in the country, on virtually any American, in less than an hour (including a federal courts search) from nothing more than an address or full name.

Commercial Business Intelligence is your source for a wide variety of intelligence-gathering tasks. We're selective of our clients and will probably ask you as many questions as you ask of us. We're willing to put our full arsenal of skills and hard-earned knowledge at your disposal.

Our employees enjoy the thrill of the chase and the hunt for obscure facts. We fiercely protect our privacy as well as the privacy of our clients. You'll be hard-pressed to find any company with such a wide range of skills and abilities.

If your corporation is at all interested in your competition, you need CBI on your team. Let's get to work!
