Computer aided strategic planning systems and methods

Abstract

The present invention relates to the field of computer software and hardware generally, and, more particularly, relates to computer-implemented methods and systems for assisting the process of strategic planning. The process provides for application of a computer-based expert system in the articulation of vision, development of goals, detailing of objectives and establishment of action plans for variety of domains applicable to individuals, groups, institutions or businesses. The resulting integrated action plans are automatically assessed for realism, consistency and alignment with consideration to available resources (enablers and constraints) and pre-established rules, axioms, policies and values. Said planning can be accomplished by a single planner, as a collaborative effort by plurality of users, as a decision-making and simulation tool for assessing alternatives or for training purposes
