Decision-making on Olympic urban development - A multi-actor decision support tool

Subject of study is the possible organisation of the Olympic Games of 2028 in the Netherlands, as seen from an urban development viewpoint. The project focuses on the decision-making process in the initiative phase. Aim of the project is the development of a decision support tool for the complex, interdisciplinary decision-making process which should result in an optimum interorganisational design. The methodology used to find the optimum choice is the combination of sub-solutions. Preference Measurement modelling based on a multi-criteria decision analysis is the technique employed. The group decision is a choice out of a number of Olympic urban development combinations, which is made in such a way that the preferred combination is the 'best' among the possible candidates for all relevant stakeholders.
