The ability to quickly adapt networks to new strategic challenges, as well as pressures for more operational efficiency demand for more frequent changes in network design and more efficiency in everyday network operations.

Notes
For an application project and deeper details concerning the cooperation aspect as well as the tool itself see: Feige, d.; Klaus, P.; Werr, H.: „Decision Support for Designing Cooperative Distribution Networks“ in:. M. Grazia Speranza, Paul Stanly (eds.): „New Trends in Distribution Logistics”, IWDL 1999: Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 1999, S. 63–93
An extremely useful, classical discussion of this idea is Lindblom, C.E.: „Still muddling, not yet through“, in: Administrative Revue 1979, 39, S. 517–526
