Bottom-Up Planning

Bottom-Up Planning is a method of planning, defining objectives and ways to achieve them through the bottom up. First, relatively close targets at lower levels of the organizational hierarchy are set. They are then gradually integrated into the framework of global goals and global strategy at higher and higher levels. It is therefore a convergent approach.

Bottom-up Planning in practise: The disadvantage is a unidirectional process, so in the planning system lacks feedback. This limitation overcomes the bidirectional planning (Top-Down/Bottom-Up).
