SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Facilitates structured decision making by turning scattered options into a transparent, data-driven ranking using a Wiegers-style priority matrix.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured criteria setup: define decision, context, options, and final decision maker.
  • Weighted scoring: assign weights to criteria and score each option to produce a defensible ranking.
  • Decision support: supports Force-Field Analysis and final recommendation documentation to resolve trade-offs.

Quick Start

Create a weighted decision matrix to compare options and generate a prioritized recommendation.

FAQPage Schema
How do I use a weighted decision matrix to prioritize features?▼

A weighted decision matrix scores multiple options against defined criteria using assigned weights to produce a transparent, data-driven ranking. This structured approach ensures defensible feature prioritization by quantifying trade-offs.

What is force-field analysis and when do I need it for project decisions?▼

Force-field analysis is a decision support technique that identifies driving and restraining forces around a proposed change. You need it to resolve trade-offs and document final recommendations after initial option scoring.

Can I use a priority matrix for vendor comparison and stakeholder alignment?▼

Yes, a priority matrix compares vendors using weighted criteria and scoring rules to generate a defensible ranking. It defines decision context and final decision makers, ensuring transparent stakeholder alignment.

How do I set up criteria weights and scoring rules for option ranking?▼

To set up criteria weights and scoring rules for option ranking, define the decision context, assign relative weights to each criterion, and score every option accordingly. This structured process produces a Wiegers-style priority matrix.

Does this priority matrix approach work for complex project decisions with multiple options?▼

Yes, the priority matrix handles complex project decisions by comparing multiple scattered options through structured criteria setup, weighted scoring, and force-field analysis to generate a final, defensible recommendation.

What is the best way to document trade-offs when selecting between multiple options?▼

The best way to document trade-offs is using a Wiegers-style priority matrix that applies weighted criteria and scoring rules to rank options, supplemented by force-field analysis to capture driving and restraining factors.
