Competitive Intelligence (CI) support and advisory bureau to market leading companies

Review.
"The 2004 Competitive Intelligence Software Review represents Aurora's advice on CI
technology issues distilled from more than 10 years of consulting experience helping
customers build world-class intelligence systems to better anticipate risks and
opportunities from the external marketplace," according to Arik Johnson, author of
the report and a Senior Fellow at Aurora's Competitive Intelligence Best Practices
Institute.
"With the impact of Sarbanes-Oxley Section 409 for U.S. companies, Basel II in Europe
and other ethical and regulatory reporting requirements, we're seeing CI software
infrastructure join customer relationship management (CRM), enterprise resource
planning (ERP), business intelligence (BI), knowledge management (KM), and supply
