Step B: Criteria Development

This is critical to understanding the goal and developing consensus among decision makers. In this stage we will frame the entire decision. We will work with your team to prioritize business objectives and evaluation criteria to prepare for assessment of projects. This step consists of multiple facilitated meetings.
During the initial meeting the participants will brainstorm objectives and criteria and then structure them into a hierarchical model. A working group will be appointed for each goal to refine the meaning and choose metrics for each.
