Comprehensive Rationality: This is the rational model, decision making takes place in orderly fashion, this is the ideal model. A decision maker is 1. confronted with a problem 2. clarifies and ranks the goals 3. identifies all alternatives to achieve goals 4. identifies all possible consequences 5. compares alternatives to consequences 6. choose the best alternative. Advantages of this model: It provides decision makers with a way of organizing the process as much as possible. Disadvantage of this model: It assumes policy making is a rational process of trying to arrive at the best technical solution to a problem and that there is consensus on goals and objectives
