A note about Park Divisions: they don't have a place in the functional analysis final product: this is a functional decomposition, not an organizational one. If you start decomposing your park by division (as I have), make sure to allow some functions' expenses to cross divisional boundaries. Don't let your park's organizational structure confuse the real issue: functions. I've tried to show how I've done Denali's decomposition, from division to function to "macro function," using the "DENA Function Chart" spreadsheet in this workbook -- Nick Hardigg

| ...Are uniform throughout the Initiatives parks: we will all group our functional break- down into the four macro - functions. It's no big deal -- just lump your functions into their proper categories and your done. |
...Are uniform throughout theInitiative's parks. Can your park fit into these constraints ? If not, let's discuss it. Soon! When reviewing this list, remember that some functions may have expenses in multiple divisions |
... are chosen by YOU! Fit this model to your parks needs. Want to declare a standard? Compare with a benchmark? If so, then break out the "sub-function" here. Use only the level of detail that your park desires: no need for 88 subfunctions! (Parenthetic entries are merely descriptions, not sub-functions.) |

*Could be a sub-function of most resource functions. It should be quantified, and targeted as evidence of inefficiency; we want resource funding in the base, requiring less hoop-jumping expense
** "Compliance" refers to activities to ensure compliance with external mandates
