The PSM32 program is used to implement the Dependency Structure Method (DSM). DSM is a way of looking at businesses from the point of view of the problems they solve. It is a tool to gain competitive advantage by increasing one’s capabilities for dealing with complex problems.
We are currently seeing many attempts to reduce a firm’s complexity by restructuring, reengineering, outsourcing, partnering, empowering and many other techniques. DSM allows you to look at the structure of the problems to be solved and their required communication patterns to make better decisions about how to reduce complexity.
Understanding the communication patterns inherent in each problem can greatly increase the efficiency with which an enterprise solves that problem. It can provide a competitive advantage by allowing significant reductions in the times needed to develop new products.
