The Challenge You need an answer to a key competitive intelligence question. In the past, after you’ve selected a lead collector, and then conducted a conference call to put together the collection plan, it might take a month or more to get a preliminary answer. The Solution With PIM, you can reduce the time it takes to assemble your CI team down to several minutes, and typically, have a preliminary answer in about four days instead of a month. With PIM, Support Analysts can create accurate reports using advanced intelligence, faster, easier, and more accurately. How PIM Works PIM automates the primary intelligence gathering portion of the CI project management process, helping you organize and get the most out of your primary intelligence. PIM builds a database that places all your company’s collectors and their sources at your fingertips, so you can easily and quickly sort them based on customized categories and topics. Then, you instantly create a CI project based on a key intelligence question. Within minutes after a CI project is created, PIM goes to work creating the CI plan. First, PIM assembles the collection team and then automatically notifies everyone on the team about the plan via e-mail, so they can go to work immediately contacting their sources for information. As the collectors create and enter their collection reports PIM automatically updates the plan. This gives analysts information faster so they can be formulating hypotheses sooner. And it reduces a months worth of CI work to minutes. Then, by compiling all the collection reports that have been entered, PIM creates a knowledge base from which you can automatically put together your next collection plan for any key intelligence question. So whether you are planning a crucial modification to a product or hiring new people, PIM gets you the answers you need. Fast. Key features
