HUANG, Chia-Ling; CHANG, Hao-Ging; LI, Rong-Kwei  e  TSAI, Chih-Hung. Using game and statistical analysis to confirm Goldratt's logical analysis of poor delivery in a multi-project environment. S. Afr. J. Ind. Eng. [online]. 2011, vol.22, n.2, pp.133-150. ISSN 2224-7890.

The objective of this study is to confirm Goldratt's logical analysis of poor delivery in a multi-project environment. Two hundred and ten experienced managers were invited to participate in a multi-project management game that simulates reality. A statistical analysis of the experimental data of this study indicates that the mode of project planning and execution (unrealistic project planning, a lack of clear working priorities, misuse of safety time, and bad multi-tasking), not uncertainty, is the root cause of poor delivery, and should therefore be improved first. The result confirmed Goldratt's logical analysis of poor delivery in project management.
