iDEAS organises all of the information required to complete this task in a graphical way. Issues, solutions, arguments and other items are displayed in one or more diagrams. Creating new items is easy and the whole process can be managed by almost anyone with a little computer experience. You will soon see the truth of the saying 'A picture says a thousand words'. The diagrams you create with iDEAS can be printed or exported to your PowerPoint presentations or Word documents - persuade yourself of the right course of action and then persuade others!
It is one of a class of software tools known variously as 'Mind Mapping', 'Decision Support' or 'Rationale Editors'. The purpose of the tools is to help you organise your thoughts as you progress through the decision making process. It does not matter what you are trying to decide; arriving at a conclusion always involves looking at the key issues, examining the arguments for and against, looking at the type of resources and other inputs a course of action will require and finally ruling different strategies in or out until a solution is decided upon.
