By: Language: English Series: Building Technology & Management ; 25(6) December 1987/January 1988, 19Publication details: 1988Subject(s): Summary: There is a conflict in project management between the need for efficient and rapid mobilisation of the team and the need for time to reflect, prior to developing a project strategy. This article looks at how this can be overcome by using computer simulation packages such as AROUSAL and PROPOSAL to develop a strategy rapidly while the early physical stages of the project begin.
