How should we plan for the future?

Time

Planning Horizon

But what about very long term (10+ years) planning?

Why are we so bad at predicting the future?

We are all “Provincials in Time”

  • 1. We look to the future through today’s lenses.
  • 2. We forget how we got to today

– it seems pre-ordained

  • 3. We think today will go on for forever

– change happens slowly

Great Horse Manure Crisis of 1894

Source: “From Horse Power to Horsepower,” Eric Morris, ACCESS no. 30, Spring 2007.

The situation was dire!

  • More than 150,000 horses in NYC producing over 2,000 tons of manure per day
  • Estimates of manure reaching 3rd floors by 1930 & nine feet in London by 1950
  • 1st International Urban Planning Conference held in NYC in 1894 – cut short!

Interestingly, though . . .

  • Over 4,000 cars were sold in the US in 1900.
  • By 1916 more cars than horses were registered in NYC.
  • The first subway in NYC was operating by Oct 1904.

Recapping: Our major limitations for planning We are all “Provincials in Time”

  • 1. We look to the future through today’s lenses.
  • 2. We forget how we got to today

– it seems pre-ordained

  • 3. We think today will go on for forever

– change happens slowly We get lulled into the current Dominant Design!

Planning Horizon

Shift focus from prediction to preparation

But what about very long term (10+ years) planning?

So many potential futures, so little time . . .

SLIDE 29

Preferred vs. Probable vs. Plausible

29

Now Possible Futures Preferred Future - VISION

Because we can’t explore ALL possible futures, we must create a handful of plausible, alternative futures that together contain the most relevant uncertainty dimensions

Probable Future

  • PREDICTION
slide-30
SLIDE 30

Scenario Planning

  • Criteria for a good set of scenarios
  • They are Situations NOT Solutions
  • Comprehensive – Cover STEEP forces
  • Decision Making– capture right decision
  • Plausibility – within realistic limits
  • Alternatives – no favorites or preferred (Unofficial/Official)
  • Consistency – internal logic is aligned
  • Differentiation – structurally different
  • Memorability – easy to recall after event (name helps)
  • Challenge – push against established wisdom
  • Accuracy of event forecasting is not important
  • The skill we are developing is preparation not predicting
  • The focus is on effects not on individual events

Translating Events into Effects Freight Flow Patterns

How can an event impact freight flows?

32

Impact on flow destination Impact on sourcing patterns Impact on routing Impact on flow volume Impact on value density

$

Where are raw products and WIP sourced from? Are materials sourced in or out of the region? Where is the demand located? How are final destination locations distributed? How is freight moved within the region? Are there intermediate shipment points or mode switches? How will the total volume of freight shipped in and through the region change? How will the product characteristics change? How does the value density change?

slide-33
SLIDE 33

The Real Value of Scenario Planning

  • Forecasting Challenges
  • Without step changes, forecasting would be easy!
  • Step changes are driven by events, and . . .
  • Events are next to impossible to predict, but . . .
  • Planners do a pretty good job preparing, so . . .
  • Scenario planning allows us to shift from

Predicting future Events To Preparing for potential Effects

Strategy vs. Factors vs Forces

  • Strategy
  • Things you control
  • Solutions & aproaches
  • Factors (“Inside-out”)
  • You cannot control
  • You may be able to influence
  • Direct and obvious effects
  • Forces (“Outside-in”)
  • You cannot control
  • You cannot influence
  • Indirect, ambiguous & unknown effects

36

A scenario is a set of driving forces

Driving Forces Survey – STEEP+

  • Non-Categorized
  • Condition and capacity of the transportation system
  • Inland port / rail connection to LA/Long Beach and Houston
  • Lack of RoW for network expansion
  • Access to competitive rail
  • Collectivization of freight to negotiate lower rates and spur

investment in freight logistics

  • Overweight corridors between rail ramp and Mexico and other

key industrial clusters, preferably state-wide to benefit all

  • A comprehensive freight transportation network model [MA-

political? Not sure what this means]

  • Equilibrium position between rail (intermodal) and truck in U. S.

economy

  • Truck stops with Emission free idle service idle area
  • Disruptions/bottlenecks at US/Mexican border crossings
