Abstract

Legal entity analysis nowadays is an important issue for enterprises, when they select their providers, clients, or other cooperation partners. Considering regular amendments to normative documents, changes in the performance of legal entities, and continuously developing new schemes for law violations, the paper suggests application of continuous engineering approach in development of IT solutions for legal entity analysis. Continuous engineering helps to ensure that the developed solutions can align with the continuous changes in regulatory requirements, legal entity performance, and available data sources used for analysis. The paper contributes the model for continuous IT solution engineering for legal entity analysis that supports various analysis factors. The model is theoretically evaluated to assess its ability to meet the challenges of legal entity analysis. Ability to implement the model is tested with the help of an IT solution prototype.
