Has statement The tracing of the actor network supported the identification of the key actors influencing the collaborative DSS implementation and institutionalization
Has evidence By defining the oligoptica of mediators (those actors - people, technologies, and the networks of people and technologies that underlay technologies - that behave in unexpected ways) local networks of actors could be traced through the unexpected changes they can cause. Also we traced the predictable (Intermediary) actors.

To be more concrete, we traced the new and unpredictable technologies that show the impact of climate change and that aid in decision making (as mediators) and the network of people and technologies involved in the current planning process (intermediaries) that will need to drift and accommodate change from a forest planning process that does not to a forest planning process that does include climate change.

Has consequences It is important to have this understanding so that it is anticipated what it takes to change a stable network of actors ensembled in the current planning process to a new stable network and hence institutionalize the new DSS technologies
Has recommendation for action One could use actor network theory to understand stability of current forest plannin actor network and undertstand what it takes to institutionalize new actant technologies.

The Decision Support System has not been given a name yet. It seems to becoming a chain of various decision support systems, models and data.
