COMPETITOR INTELLIGENCE · Workflow idea

Track competitor moves while keeping evidence separate from assumptions.

Gather selected public updates about competitors, including funding announcements, leadership changes, new market entries, and product launches. Keep each observation tied to its source and date, verify the company and details, and ask a researcher to approve record changes and assess what the findings may mean before any strategic or financial decision.

The handoff

A reviewable competitor activity record with event details, source context, dates, and verification status.

Keep in mind

Public reports may be incomplete, outdated, or wrongly connected to a company. Verify identity, dates, funding amounts, and source context before approving any research record change. Past activity does not predict future outcomes; require qualified human judgment for financial decisions and approval of any findings shared outside the intended team.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define the competitor set and purpose

Document which companies are in scope and what research question the tracker should support.

Choose event types and evidence standards

Decide which developments to track and what source evidence is needed before calling an item verified.

Set record quality and access practices

Keep source links and review dates with each item, limit editing rights, and make corrections clear.

Assign research and decision reviewers
