Abstract
This article considers the process of resource allocation, whereby an organization determines how best to apportion its factors of production between the various productive activities in which it wishes to engage. It is suggested that none of the academic approaches to date has provided an entirely coherent picture of the process, in part because of the contradictory models of the process that they generate. The article goes on to consider the planning processes that are involved in assessing future projects and the way in which past outcomes feed into the assessment of future projects.
