Intelligent Management Trends is an independent research and advisory firm that analyzes the management trends and vendors enabling timely, optimized, risk-informed enterprise decision making. Business decision makers often face a choice of using a deliberative decision making process versus acting on intuition. The former may be perceived as slow, complex, and tedious while the latter invites greater risks. Current market developments, however, are enabling deeper analysis of decision alternatives without sacrificing the speed necessary for first mover advantages. IMT believes the convergence of risk management best practices, technology advances, and burgeoning data sources has the potential to greatly accelerate business decision making proficiency. Our published research includes complimentary industry Perspectives and premium Reports addressing management best practices, vendor capabilities, and market forecasts. We analyze organizational decision making, risk consultants, risk advisors, enterprise risk management software, GRC software, decision support solutions, and information product vendors that improve the speed and certainty of business decision making to achieve organizational objectives. Our custom research and advisory services serve: 1. Enterprises seeking support for assessing vendor offerings and justifying resource investments. 2. Vendors interested in better positioning their offerings or looking to expand their portfolio of services, software or information products through development, partnerships, or acquisitions. 3. Investors, Associations, and Others interested in promoting or assessing opportunities in the market for products and services that improve risk-informed decision making. IMT is led by Founder and Principal Advisor John Farrell, supported by a network of highly experienced primary researchers, market modelers, and analysts with both US and global market research capabilities.
