Abstract :
Strategic investment decisions (SID´s) are more easily understood and controlled than most of the other activities undertaken within the framework of strategic management. Hyperknowledge support systems have been used as problem solving and decision support environments for strategic management and for strategic decision making in a number of industries in recent years. It appears that the logic of a SID is complex enough for a decision maker to benefit from the use of a hyperknowledge environment, and that a hyperknowledge support system could help a management team to control the problems with deciding, launching and following up on strategic investment projects.
