SolvProb Decision Matrix

Weighted Decision Analysis Tool

How to use

Define Criteria: List the requirements (e.g., Cost, Risk) and assign a Weight (1-10) based on importance.

Define Options: List the solutions/vendors you are comparing.

Baseline: In the matrix, choose one option as the reference (Standard). It stays at 0.

Score: Rate other options relative to the Baseline using the dropdowns.

Calculation Logic

Cell Score = Weight × Rating

++ (2) : Much Better
+ (1) : Better
S (0) : Same (Baseline)
- (-1) : Worse
-- (-2) : Much Worse

Example: If 'Cost' has Weight 5 and an option is 'Better' (+1), the result is 5 points.
