Strategic Intelligence

We provide clients with the strategic insight and competitor intelligence required to help them make informed decisions before entering into new markets, or doing business with unknown people, third party agents, supply chains and organisations.

We safeguard our clients’ reputation and protect them from international risks and regulatory breaches.  All organisations are different, but they all require elements of strategic intelligence.

TenIntelligence provides clients with the following strategic intelligence services:

Understanding who, how, where and what your competitors are planning is a fundamental facet in business. Using our analysis allows our clients to anticipate competitive threats, identify product launches, recruitment campaigns and expansions into new markets.

We administer ethical fact finding and innovative research techniques that identify and evaluate competitors strategies to help determine their capabilities, vulnerabilities, intentions, strengths and weaknesses, relative to those of your own product or service.  Helping to provide clients with the knowledge they require to help integrate focused decisions, identify new markets and seize fresh opportunities.

Investing or operating in adverse business environments or foreign jurisdictions is a daunting proposition for businesses, the financial rewards can be staggering but the risks can equally be devastating. Environmental conditions, shifting regulations, political fluctuations and cultural changes are all risks that an organisation will face over time.

Collecting reliable intelligence on diverse business customs, fraud risks, corruption levels, political influences and the regulatory environment enables clients to seize opportunities with assurance in these jurisdictions.

Mergers & Acquisitions
Mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures, partnerships and listing on stock markets are commonplace in building a business.

We focus on mitigating counterparty risk before a prospective deal, engagement or transaction is completed and helps clients avoid potentially costly mistakes.

We provide reliable insight into the backgrounds and reputation of these counter-parties and examine the motivations of key individuals and management teams.

A robust third-party assurance programme allows your organisation to ensure the data and systems it entrusts to its providers are maintained in a secure and compliant manner.  Proper due diligence and risk analysis are critical components delivering the assurance programme and should become an integral part of contract management.

Due diligence should focus on the thorough vetting of organisations, prior to establishing or continuing a relationship.
