The applicability of the Nominal Grouping Technique (NGT) to a structured problem was investigated. NGT and interacting consensus groups were compared on the criteria of decision quality, utilization of best resource, and improvement in quality over average‐member decision quality. Nominal groups' decisions were significantly (p = .005) better than those of interacting groups on all three criteria. Problems with criteria assessment in unstructured tasks were discussed, as were the implications of the present study for prescriptions for NGT use.
