Knowledge Management in the Intelligence Enterprise
This system-level resource specifically applies knowledge management principles, practices and technologies to the intelligence domain. Designed for those responsible for the management of an intelligence enterprise operation and its delivery of reliable intelligence to key decision-makers, the text describes the essential principles of intelligence,
from collection, processing and analysis to dissemination, for both national intelligence and business applications. The author aims to provide a balanced treatment of the organizational and architectural components of knowledge management, offering an understanding of the system infrastructure, tools and technologies necessary to implement the intelligence enterprise. He explores real-world applications and presents a detailed example of competitive intelligence unit design. Including over 80 illustrations, the volume offers a practical description of enterprise architecture design methodology, and covers the full range of national, military, business and competitive intelligence.
