Why these three P? I must confess that the idea of trying to define the analysis activity, and implicitly, the main parts of a reform in this important area for the activity of each intelligence service came following some discussions I had with colleagues, experts and intelligence analysts. I worked, as co-author, to a paper (presented within an international forum) concerning the evolution of intelligence analysis on these three categories: process, product and personnel. Afterward, I found there is a whole literature that defines the management processes (especially in corporations) or the performance in an organization / company in the 3P logic. So, I will briefly approach, from a theoretical point of view, the subject of intelligence analysis reform, and I will talk about practical component, starting from those three identified essential factors.}, keywords = {Arbeitskräfte; Rekrutierung; Prozessmanagement; analytic theory; Intelligenz; nationale Sicherheit; process management; intelligence; Romania; Geheimdienst; manpower; secrecy; organizational analysis; Geheimhaltung; Rumänien; secret service; recruitment; analytische Wissenschaftstheorie; national security; Organisationsanalyse}}
