Armada Corporate Intelligence

What Armada Corporate Intelligence does

Armada Corporate Intelligence is a private corporate intelligence firm founded in 2002 and headquartered in Lawrence, Kansas. It analyzes market forces and operating conditions for C-level executives, providing executive intelligence briefings, strategic and private-market intelligence, industry analytics, annual customer value analysis studies, and related advisory services. Its disclosed industry coverage includes transportation and logistics, manufacturing, financial services, construction, consumer goods, and energy.

The company's core product, The Flagship Briefing, is a recurring "Officer of the Watch Report" delivered three days per week to C-level executives. It also offers ASIS, a continuous forecasting intelligence tool for durable manufacturing. Armada says its analysis rests on proprietary methodologies developed through 22 years of intelligence gathering, economic forecasting, and strategy development, although it does not disclose the underlying technical architecture, datasets, or forecasting-validation methods. Revenue comes from a $7-per-month Flagship subscription with a 30-day free trial, quote-based professional services, and annual CVA studies conducted with Mastio & Company; distribution combines self-service digital subscription signup, direct consultation sales, email briefings, and association programs.
