This paper presents a design methodology for synthesizing organizations to execute complex missions efficiently. It focuses on devising mission planning strategies to optimally achieve mission goals while optimally utilizing organization's resources. Effective planning is often the key to successful completion of the mission, and conversely, mission failure can often be traced back to poor planning. Details on subsequent phases of the design process to construct the mission-driven human organizations are discussed in a companion paper.
