The Decision Making Process

In the hierarchy of collaboration there are four steps, becoming informed, the decision making process, solving the problem, and managing the projects. Within the decision making process itself there are two processes within, the structured process, and the unstructured process. Within the structured process there is an organized procedure whereas in the unstructured process, there is no agreed upon procedure. The decision making process also includes sharing decision criteria, alternative descriptions, evaluation tools, evaluation results and the implementation plan.
