Decisions concerning capacity expansion, i.e., determining the optimal timing and level of capacity acquisition and allocation, are often crucial elements of effective strategic planning. The commitment of substantial financial capital is often required under the uncertainties of inaccurate long-range forecasts. Transportation and telecommunications are two sectors in which network capacity decisions are central to the business.

关于能力扩展的决定，即，确定能力获取和分配的最佳时机和水平往往是有效战略规划的关键要素。在长期预测不准确的不确定情况下，往往需要投入大量资金。运输和电信是网络容量决策对业务至关重要的两个部门。
