Public-Source Corporate Intelligence & Risk Research

Beaty Corporate Intelligence

Before you commit to a business relationship, investment, or acquisition—know the company you’re dealing with.

Beaty Corporate Intelligence provides public-source corporate research and analysis focused on the risks most relevant to business decisions.

Before You Commit

Understand the Company Behind the Decision

The objective is not to collect every available fact about a company. It is to identify the information most relevant to the decision and determine what it means.

Who owns and controls the company?

Identify material ownership, controlling interests, and corporate-structure issues that could affect the relationship.

Is leadership and governance stable?

Examine leadership, board oversight, management changes, governance concerns, and other indicators of organizational stability.

How financially resilient is the company?

Assess available indicators of financial condition, financing dependence, liquidity, leverage, and capacity to absorb setbacks.

What does the company depend on?

Identify material reliance on customers, contracts, government business, suppliers, financing, or other external relationships.

Are there legal or regulatory concerns?

Review relevant litigation, regulatory, compliance, and publicly reported corporate-risk developments.

What could affect execution?

Examine operational performance, acquisition and integration risk, execution concerns, and other issues material to the decision.

What it means: BCI brings the findings together into an overall assessment with practical next steps for the business decision.

How It Works

A Defined Research Process

01

Define the Decision

Tell BCI which company you are evaluating and what business decision you need to make.

02

Confirm the Scope

BCI determines the appropriate service level and confirms the research scope before work begins.

03

Research and Assess

Relevant public sources are reviewed and the findings are evaluated in the context of the decision.

04

Receive the Assessment

You receive a written assessment focused on material findings, risks, information gaps, and practical next steps.

Portfolio Exercise

Redwire Corporation was not a BCI client and did not commission, participate in, or endorse the assessment.

Portfolio examples are provided to demonstrate research and analytical approach and reflect information available through the stated assessment date.

Analytical Approach

Focused on What the Evidence Supports

Source-Driven

Material findings are grounded in identifiable, lawfully accessible public sources.

Decision-Focused

Research concentrates on issues that could materially affect the client’s stated business decision.

Analytically Disciplined

Established facts, analytical judgments, mitigating indicators, and unresolved information gaps remain distinct.

Bounded

Research is performed to the agreed service level rather than expanding automatically when additional questions emerge.

Analyst-Led

Direct Involvement From Intake Through Reporting

Beaty Corporate Intelligence is led by a retired U.S. Air Force officer and former federal program manager with a Master of Business Administration (MBA) and experience developing and presenting decision-oriented analysis.

Research and analysis are conducted directly by the Principal Analyst, providing continuity between the client’s question, the research, the assessment, and the final report.
