[edit] Disambiguation

I think this page needs a disambiguation link at the top. I was looking for NERA the satphone technology company, and was sent straight here. I think I should have gone here: [[1]] but for some reason I can't correctly generate the disambiguation link (I think becuase the Nera page isn't a true disambiguation page - maybe it needs renaming to Nera_disambiguation? But I'm not sure, and can't do it now! Help! --Tomhannen 12:56, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability

I see the notability of the company is in question. From the notability guidelines:

A company or corporation is notable if it meets any of the following criteria:
1. The company or corporation has been the subject of multiple non-trivial published works whose source is independent of the company or corporation itself.

NERA is cited in national and international newspapers and other sources weekly. For the most recent reports, see http://www.nera.com/MediaCoverages.asp Tim 16:44, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

  • They're ranked as the #1 economic consulting firm. Very notable --Crocodile Punter 12:59, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Where? What secondary source? I checked Vault; I couldn't find it. BowChickaNeowNeow (talk) 20:26, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Question

What does NERA stand for?

[edit] Merger proposal

On it's own, I don't think this article does well. However, I think the info contained in it has potential as a section in the Marsh & McLennan Companies article (its parent company). BowChickaNeowNeow (talk) 15:27, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

I think this article should be merged with Oliver Wyman since "NERA Economic Consulting (www.nera.com), founded in 1961 as National Economic Research Associates, is a unit of the Oliver Wyman Group." [1] Merging to MMC would be to general. --Email4jonathan (talk) 15:12, 28 February 2008 (UTC)
