Search and Analytical Processing of Information for Use in Industrial Production

Abstract

This article discusses the importance of the timely receipt and analysis of information on the likelihood of competitors producing similar products, especially for military and dual-use products. Methods of information collection are considered. The main form of information collection is monitoring. By processing information about direct and indirect competitors, both open and closed, specialists in Russian enterprises and companies, knowing the weaknesses and strengths of their competitors, change their production process over time. The main characteristic of the information system for obtaining and processing data is bandwidth, as the system that can provide more bandwidth wins the competition. That is, one criterion for the competitiveness of any system is the bandwidth of its information channel. The process of forming the levels of hierarchy of the information system is considered. The importance of information systems in the modern economy is noted, as in a business where new competitors are constantly emerging, maintaining one’s market position requires constant attention.
