'''Structured data analysis''' ('''SDA)''') is a method for analysing the flow of information within an organization using [[data flow diagram]]s. It was originally developed by [[IBM]] for [[systems analysis]] in electronic [[data processing]], although it has now been adapted for use to describe the flow of information in any kind of project or organization, particularly in the [[construction industry]] where the nodes could be departments, contractors, customers, managers, workers etc.
