Abstract

Strategic planning is the process in which organisations undertake such actions as identyfying its business objectives, selecting the acceptable means to achieve them and initiating the necessary courses of action and allocation of resources. All these actions are unstructured, ill-defined with uncertainty and impreciseness of the data. This chapter considers some concepts of using fuzzy sets to support actions of strategic planning, i.e. fuzzy portfolio analysis, hierarchical structures of fuzzy ratings and fuzzy approach in strategic planning of CIM implementation. Software tools: expert systems that help to use fuzzy concepts in strategic planning are also considered.
