ICValue™ is a comprehensive framework developed by Attainix Consulting for defining the Intellectual Capital of any business in a three phased manner. This framework uses more than 600 standard pre-defined indicators and as many custom indicators as are relevant to your business. These indicators are assessed for strategic relevance using five rigid tests. Those that make the cut are refined and mapped to your core competencies. These core competencies are valued using algorithms developed by Attainix Consulting and are presented in an Intellectual Capital Report that can be used for both internal and external circulation.

Listed Companies can use an IC Report to communicate how their value drivers are being nourished and enhanced to their existing investors. After all, do you really believe that publishing financial statements in the annual report is enough?
