time distance complexity matrix (TDC Matrix)

A framework created by Ben Tiggelaar. It helps assess the value or influence of information and communication technology (ICT) and the internet as a general concept. It is used throughout the strategy development process, for example vision, mission, strategic analysis and implementation etc. The framework is normally used to ask what is the influence (or value) of controlling time, distance and complexity in conjunction with another model, for example the balanced scorecard, 5 forces model or value chain model.
