Abstract

This study aims to conduct a bibliometric analysis inherent to assessing competitive intelligence and business intelligence concepts using the Scopus database and the Bibliometrix R software. The study’s articles were found using precise criteria in the Scopus database. The 42 publications were then examined with Bibliometrix software, which included extensive parameterization for each component under evaluation. The results of this study consisted of establishing the number of existing publications on the topic under analysis between 2017 and 2021 – in this sense, it was possible to identify that the publications are experiencing an annual decrease rate of 22.69%; the trends in terms of publications and collaborations between countries; the most relevant journals in the area; and the interconnections between authors, keywords, and publications. This study has as an added value the possibility to evaluate the relevance attributed by academics to ascertain the most important contributions in terms of authors, articles, and journals. One major limitation in this study could be addressed in future research. The study focused on a limited study field in the context of business, management, and accounting, so it would be very pertinent to understand how this topic has evolved, particularly in the area of computer science.
