The strategic procedures and tactics are based on the fundamentals of project management, and both benefits and limitations are addressed. The concept of project management is applied to strategic obsolescence management in the following manner: (1) the initiation stage describes problem recognition and analysis; (2) the planning and design stage describes the assessment and decisions concerning the project’ s topic; (3) the execution stage that describes the management, handling, and execution of a project; and (4) the monitoring and controlling stage describes problem solving and the final control of a project. At the end of the chapter, strategic obsolescence management guidelines are provided to show how to implement a strategic obsolescence management system within an organization.
