Applying these methodologies to strategic decisions in an organisation helps giving a broader view of the problematic situation is being faced, considering not only the company itself but also its environment. When managers deal with decision-making situations, they often find many different aspects to be taken into account. Multimethodology, that is, using more than one method, is a useful tool when working with these different aspects because each method focuses on some special conditions of the problem. So, combining several approaches gives a more accurate view, and therefore a better solution." }
