Insight & Intelligence

TFPL recognises many disciplines at work in the transformation of data into information, information into knowledge, knowledge into insight and foresight, and analysis into solutions and confident decision making. This means strategy for longer term goals, and tactics for smart working.

We recognise these discrete communities of practice, and have clients and talent pools aligned with them:

  • Strategy: Analysts and Consultants in mergers and acquisitions, corporate development with policy, leadership and innovation.

    This group consists of specialists working at board level (or equivalent), or as practitioners within in consulting firms, specialising in strategy, development and implementation. These provide the due diligence and advice behind the uptake of new ideas and new partnerships. Skills combine research with financial analysis, technology assessment, and macro-economic analyses.
  • Competitive & Market Intelligence: CI practitioners, Sales/Market Analysts, Technical and Commercial due diligence experts, Research & Development (R&D) monitoring.

    This group typically focus on sales and commercial support for acquisition, products and services and innovation – the development of new channels to market. TFPL supplier specialists to corporate organisations and specialist CI service and solutions advisory firms.
  • Client & Customer Insight: Management Information Specialists; Operational Research, Performance analysis and primary research with thought leadership.

    This group has a focus on trends and customer behaviour, benchmarking, market sizing and the pace of change. Here skills combine hard data with anecdotal evidence to be able to interpret market movements and shifts in the motivation and procurement patterns of clients. TFPL supplies practitioners to organisations, to research agencies and content providers.
