The Business Flight Simulator is a major action research project involving academic and industrial collaborators. Its central purpose is to support the creation and development of learning organizations through the application of wide variety of IT and software tools. The particular influence of evolving system dynamics thinking on the project is identified. The project also draws in finding from a recent international study of the application of information technology to support group working. The preoccupation of the Business Flight stimulators is with creating a physical and networking environment for group decisions and their implementation. Groups are supported by a variety of software tools. Much of the emphasis during the last decade has been on the application of single tool to support group working. These range from the highly quantitative to those which focus on more qualitative and inter-personal issues. The research project involves applying combinations of tools to business processes across a variety of industrial sectors, and preliminary conclusions in this area will be discussed.
