* REQUIREMENTS FOR FLEXIBILITY- knowledge of business objects and their relations (- knowledge of external factors and effects- flexible information systems- models and support for simulating and prognoses

* IRREGULAR AND BADLY COORDINATEDADMINISTRATION DEVELOPMENT

* TASK DISTRIBUTION AND SYSTEMS INTERFACEPROBLEMS
