Decision Structure

Structured decisions
Occur in situations, when a decision is needed to be made, the procedures to be followed are specified in advance.
Ex. Inventory reorder

Unstructured decisions
Decision situations where it is not possible to specify in advance most of the decision procedures to follow.
Ex. What product lines should we develop over the next five years?

Semi structured decisions
Some decision procedures can be pre specified, but not enough to lead to a definite recommended decision.
Ex. Decisions involved in starting a new line of e-commerce services, making changes to employee benefits.
