One of the critical problems faced by the company is the adequate management of the information system to monitor its economic environment, since variations in this environment, at the national or international level, can imply profound changes in the organization's strategies. The purpose of this paper is to present, based on a conceptual framework previously developed by one of the authors, a rigorous methodological framework for the analysis of the company's economic environment and its application to the sugar sector of the geographic valley region of the Cauca river in Colombia.
