Abstract :
The authors describe the application of dynamic modeling in an explorative case study by the Amsterdam Municipal Police Force. The current organization and the business processes of the force, both `as is´ and `as could be´, have been evaluated using a dynamic model as a substitute for the complex, organizational reality. During the study, dynamic modeling proved to be an effective technique for supporting organizational change
