The present invention provides a technique of assisting in forming plans
of measures for management reforms, which are specific to an individual
enterprise, and a technique of verifying formed plans of measures. In the
present invention, a general business-operation-index vector f that
includes a plurality of indexes indicating the condition of business
management; a general plan-of-measures vector x including a plurality of
plans of measures which are information about how to deal with the
condition indicated by each index included in the general
business-operation-index vector f; and a problem-index vector f', are
used. On the basis of these, a problem-index-plan-of-measures matrix Mm'
is produced which defines correlation between the problem-index vector f'
and a plan-of-measures vector x' (Step 3221). A potential
plan-of-measures vector x' is selected from the general plan-of-measures
vector X by extracting the plans of measures in the column of the matrix
Mm' (Step 3222). A gross-investment (necessary to execute plans of
measures) matrix Mi is produced (Step 3223). A relational expression
between the problem indexes and the plane-of-measures (f'=Mm'x') are
produced Step 3224).
