Title :
A simple analytical approach to choice
Abstract :
A simple analytical method is described that can be used to assist the decision process in making a choice between a number of options. This method is carried out in two stages. It is an ideal tool to use interactively on a group basis involving the team that is participating in the selection process. Ideally two sheets of a flip chart or a computer spreadsheet can be used to manipulate and collect the results. The first stage is selection criterion ranking and the second stage is candidate item ranking. After the second stage the weighted results are analysed.
