These two activities interact; both are necessary for an effective world-class CI function.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMost of the literature has focused on various aspects of CI operations such as collection techniques and analytical methods. Designing the administration structure of a CI function has been primarily examined in an ad hoc manner.
