Corporate Intelligence Scaled to the Decision
BCI offers four standard levels of public-source corporate research, plus Custom Research for requirements that fall outside the standard packages.
Need a first look? Start with a Company Risk Snapshot. Need deeper integrated analysis? Choose a Corporate Intelligence Brief. Have specific material concerns that require deeper examination? Enhanced Due Diligence may be appropriate. Need to know when the risk picture changes? Company Monitoring provides recurring review against an established baseline.
Company Risk Snapshot
A Concise First Look at the Company and the Risks That Matter
Best For
- Vendor or supplier screening
- Business partners and counterparties
- Preliminary investment review
- Preliminary acquisition review
- Situations where you need to determine whether anything warrants closer examination
What You Receive
- Principal risk findings

- Overall assessment
- Practical next steps
- 3–5 page PDF report

The Company Risk Snapshot is a bounded screening-level assessment rather than exhaustive due diligence. Issues requiring deeper work are identified as information gaps or possible follow-on diligence.

Enhanced Due Diligence
Go Deeper Where the Decision Depends on Resolving Specific Material Concerns
Best For
- Complex ownership or control
- Financial distress or financing uncertainty
- Significant litigation
- Regulatory or compliance exposure
- Acquisition or integration concerns
- Strategic relationships involving elevated risk
- Issues identified through prior BCI research that require deeper examination
What You Receive

Turnaround: 7–10 business days
Enhanced Due Diligence is scoped manually. BCI confirms the priority issues, final price, deliverable, and anticipated turnaround before payment.
Company Monitoring
Know When Something Changes That Could Affect the Risk Assessment
Best For
- Important vendors or suppliers
- Strategic partners
- Investments
- Acquisition or integration situations
- Companies with previously identified risk issues
- Relationships where ongoing awareness matters
Standard Monitoring Includes
- One company
- Approximately 4–6 agreed monitoring areas
- Weekly scheduled public-source review
- Monthly 1–2 page monitoring update
- Interim notice of material developments identified during scheduled monitoring when warranted
- Assessment of whether the risk picture appears stable, improving, or deteriorating
Price: From $175/month
Company Monitoring normally begins from a current BCI Company Risk Snapshot, Corporate Intelligence Brief, or Enhanced Due Diligence assessment. New clients without a current baseline will ordinarily begin with a Company Risk Snapshot.
Standard Company Monitoring is based on scheduled review and is not a 24/7 or guaranteed real-time alert service.
Custom Research
When the Requirement Does Not Fit a Standard Package
BCI considers legitimate corporate research assignments outside the standard service structure on a case-by-case basis.
Examples may include:
- Multi-company research
- Competitor or market-participant research
- Ownership or affiliate mapping
- Multi-jurisdiction research
- Specialized public-source corporate research
- Expedited or otherwise nonstandard requirements
Pricing: Quoted after scope review
