Abstract:
This paper examines the use of modelling to analyse aspects of the planning system to minimise the potential for planning error. Using a dependency structure matrix, the relationships between multiple plans used within the planning system are analysed to identify and minimise the opportunity for planning errors to occur. Building on this example, the use of such models to evaluate the overall planning system in multiple ways is explored with the objective of defining enhanced methodologies for conducting the highly dispersed but yet very interactive planning activity amongst project actors.
