An engineered outcome results from the use of a range of control strategies that are appropriate in situations of complex uncertainty. The strategies used have universal application in complex problem solving. It is not only engineers who use them: Scientists  'engineer' the development of a drug;  professional engineers will engineer the design and development of an aircraft. Businesses are 'engineered' (or 're-engineered').

Those who seek to address the complex problems of the modern world - sustainability, inequality, energy, climate change, waste, etc. - must use the strategies.  All who have, or aspire to have, a responsible role in society should discipline their minds to use them.


The strategies form the basis of a 'engineered process' that is used to control the risk of unsatisfactory outcomes.
