TreeTop…Decision Software for the Next Generation

The Challenges of Modern Decision Making

Today’s decision makers have never been more challenged; as the speed of business accelerates, the ramifications of poor choices can be catastrophic. How then, can decision makers improve the quality of their decisions, mitigate their risks and be confident in the outcome? Through a structured workflow that can be learned and applied to all decision problems. Key to this solution is Quality Decision Making (QDM) techniques coupled with TreeTop, Decision Frameworks'innovative decision tree application.

Decision Frameworks TreeTop application delivers state-of-the-art, Xbox 360®, style graphics interface with a powerful calculation control system and the capability to manage external models, such as those built in Microsoft Excel®.

TreeTop is not a variation of existing decision tree technology but a complete re-think of decision software, designed to take advantage of next generation technical advancements and to incorporate Microsoft Excel® as an add-in.

Scalable for facilitating day to day decisions rendered as simple trees, TreeTop further offers the power to develop extensive trees with several hundred thousand end nodes - building decision trees from “scratch” or automatically generating them from Tornado diagrams.
