Helllo Ezara, yes, that's an excellent paper dealing with the overall complexity of a project.
But the guide seems to be saying there are tools that will identify the more complex *elements* in projects. Perhaps WBS elements? Or at least it's indicating their are methods of evaluating the overall project to isolate the complex elements. My problem is that I have trouble imagining which tool could evaluate the overall project effort and isolate the complex elements.
Thank you for your well-considered answer!

Thanks for posting look very interesting, from comments by David
Hi Kiron, The guide wording clearly implies that there are tools (perhaps a checklist) that will help narrow down complex elements in the overall project. I just can't quite imagine how that could work across the wide range of projects we all have. From nuclear reactors to preparing to teach a class. It's hard for me to grasp.
There's a few "vague" areas that I'm coming across. I'll post them as I find them. Saving Changes...

I was part of the group of authors and reviewers. I pointed out the need to rewrite that statement but it was keep as is. All about to answer you question falls in the field of Business Analysis mainly in the process named "Needs Assessment" by using tools like PESTLE analysis or Porter Five Forces, Zachman framework, etc. No project/program/portfolio exists without business analysis activities. From those deliverables of those activities all related to project/program/portfolio is defined then the complexity of the project/program/portfolio is understood. Saving Changes...
Could one method work with all kind of project? Should various tools be develop adapted to Construction, capital project, financial, IT,.... Saving Changes...
