This study seeks to examine a middle sized decision
from initial impetus through implementation. Its
central topic is not the automated bakery as such but
the goals, processes and problems of decision taking
in Tanzania as illustrated by the bakery case. In
particular the effectiveness (or otherwise) of the
more technical aspects of the planning process in
transforming socio-political decisions into projects
and operations achieving (or otherwise) the initial
goals is subjected to scrutiny and ways of improving
its performance suggested.
