The pace of development in knowledge and know-how in the
Organisation Sciences, Logistics and Information Technology is
rapid. However, the gap between those who practice these sciences
and the practicing manager is becoming larger rather than smaller.
The Delft Systems Approach sets out to close the gap between theory
and practice, and to achieve the following goals:
- To improve the conception of a design in order to obtain a
better match between expected and real operation of a (future)
industrial system.
- To integrate structural and behavioural conceptions of a system
to be designed.
- To support the communication between different specialists,
both being involved in the same processes and projects.
- To guide managers in applying this knowledge to the problems
with which they are confronted in practice.
- To communicate knowledge and understanding of that part of
Systems Theory, which will enable managers to further improve their
performance and/or to reduce their workload.
The Delft Systems Approach is divided into three parts. Part I
principally describes a fundamental approach for analysing
industrial systems, which emphasizes a concept that can be used by
all disciplines involved, and makes a logical systematic
combination of quantitative and qualitative modelling. This
approach is used for the analysis of industrial systems. Part II is
concerned with the use of these models in the design of (future)
systems. Finally, Part III contains three comprehensive cases from
the authorsa (TM) own practical experiences. All theoretical
concepts are directly illustrated with a practical example.
