Abstract

The sector of railways plays a very important part in economy of the most countries of the European Union. Usually such companies are known as the largest employers also taxes payers in the country, consequently their importance is really great. It is also noticed that the companies, which belong to the sector of railways compete in the market with the companies of other sectors of transport. That is why the matter of planning and implementing of the methods of competitive intelligence has taken on a special topicality as one of the ways to get a competitive advantage in the market. Usually to frame such methods on their own is a very difficult task for business organizations, so they seek assistance from to the companies, which provide them with such service. However it is necessary to remark that competitive intelligence is a continuous process with no interruption and only in this circumstance it is possible to expect the positive results. In our opinion, this process should be started with framing of the methods.
