Level of Detail

Tailor the Level

Getting too much detail wastes money and time, and getting too little may overlook something that will jeopardize the solution.

The level of detail has to be tailored to the decision being made and your point in the decision process. For example, appraisal level cost estimates are not nearly as detailed as advanced planning or construction authorization. What goes into a policy wil not be as detailed as what goes on in the field. Or when you decide which city to live in, you look at an overall picture of the community and employment rather than detailed blueprints of individual houses.

Details will accumulate throughout the process. The spiralling lines betweel the levels of detail represent ever-increasing data assessment and evaluation accuracy.
