Get Started with Project Request Scorecards

Overview

It is common for organizations to score project requests to assess their relative value. Project requests can vary widely, making comparisons difficult. Scoring aims to provide a common set of criteria relevant to all requests, enabling them to be assessed more accurately.

Project request scorecards allow you to define a set of criteria that are used to generate a calculated score for the project request. The criteria are presented as a series of questions, in which invidious rate the relative value of each criterion for the project request being assessed. The total score for the scorecard is the sum of the criteria scores. You can define multiple scorecards and use them on different types of project requests.

Total Weighted Score Calculations

Each scorecard criterion is assigned a weight relative to the others using the Percent of Value field. Each choice within a scorecard criterion is given a weight relative to the other choices within that criterion using the Value field.

The score for one criterion is given by this formula:

CriterionScore = (SelectedChoiceValue / MaximumChoiceValue) * PercentOfValue

The final score for the score card is generated using this formula:

ScoreCardScore = SUM(CriterionScore)
