Weighted Decision Matrix Template

Step 1: List all the options by clicking on the "Add" button.

Step 2: Insert the factors for your evaluation inside each option by clicking the "Add" button.

Step 3: Assign a numerical weight for each criterion. The default weight scale in this template prioritizes factors from 1-5:

1 = Least Important
2 = Somewhat Important
3 = Moderately Important
4 = Highly Important
5 = Most Important

Step 4: Choose a rating system to rank your options based on how it fulfills the criteria. The default scale in this template ranks items from 1-5:

1 = Poor
2 = Fair
3 = Good
4 = Very Good
5 = Excellent

Step 5: Multiply the weight and rating to get the total score. See the image below as an example.

Step 6: Combine the total scores per criterion to get the overall score for the option.
