Important announcement

Dear visitor,

Please note that this OpenCourseWare platform will be replaced at the end of 2026 by a new platform (under the same url ocw.tudelft.nl).

Courses and their contents that are currently available the platform will partly be migrated. URL’s for this content will change and content might be unavailable for some time. In addition, some courses will not be available anymore.

If you are linking to specific courses on this platform (for instance for your students), please take timely measures to avoid problems with access. Possible actions are:

  • Download the materials to your local platform (laptop, server)
  • For educators only (including TU Delft lecturers): Contact us at ocw@tudelft.nl and inform us what course you are using in what context (institute, program, period of use, number of students). We will research (in collaboration with the authors of the course) and decide if we will migrate the course, and if yes, can supply you with a new url.

Thank you.

2.1.1 the TOE framework

Course subject(s) Module 2. Project complexity assessment

We will further introduce the TOE framework in the video lecture that follows. TOE stands for Technical, Organisational and External: the three key areas to cluster elements contributing to project complexity.

Before looking at the video lecture, you might want to take a closer look into the TOE framework as displayed below. Those elements in the framework that are in bold are suggested to have a stronger link with project performance.
