This course will lead you through a step-by-step process to develop effective decision models to solve problems in a project, product or work process. The course brings together tools and techniques along with a conceptual and analytical framework that can be applied across a breadth of decisions facing an organization. The course integrates both new and time-tested techniques into a logical, structured approach for assessing issues, developing solutions, and making decisions that drive the successful achievement of goals. This course is applicable to all engineering disciplines and should be of interest to individuals at various stages in their career.
The course is divided into sections to segment the process so that you can perform the evaluation process. Section 1 discusses establishing goals and objectives for the organization. Section 2 involves the process required to develop criteria and metrics to meet the goals and objectives. Section 3 discusses the group evaluation of projects and products, and Section 4 describes the product and project evaluation process based on the techniques provided in the previous sections.
The goal of this course is to provide a structured framework to evaluate projects and products so that organizational decisions contribute to the accomplishment of the goals and objectives of the organization. This robust, analytical framework provides for defensible decisions within an organization.
