Analytical Tradecraft
How the intelligence function works.
Reporting and judgement are kept separate. Information is collected, validated and tested before it becomes an assessment, warning indicator or forward-looking requirement.
1. Requirements
Define the question, decision need and information gaps.
2. Collection
Gather official, commercial, media, OSINT and movement-related reporting.
3. Validation
Cross-check claims, timing, location, source quality and competing explanations.
4. Assessment
Identify patterns, implications, confidence, scenarios and second-order effects.
5. Monitoring
Set indicators that would confirm, weaken or change the judgement.
