Field Trip Case Studies

Field Trip case studies does not accept open submission by default, but for adventurer who takes the challenge here are our requirements (two approaches to capture decision-making processes that readers can reproduce and adapt):

Examine each project phase systematically (Project Initiation, Financing, Project Management, Marketing, etc.). Track how initial resources and information converted into decisions, how key milestones consumed resources and created outputs, and how those outputs delivered actual benefits.
