What It Is
The Decision Matrix is a tried and tested tool used commonly by analysts in businesses of all sizes. If you're trying to make a selection between multiple options (e.g. vendors, suppliers, event venues, anything!), this Google Sheets spreadsheet is the tool for you. This template provides a structured way to rank up-to 3 possible options using factors important to you.
Why It's Great

Indicate the relative importance of your decision factors using the default suggested Ranking scale or customize it to meet your needs.
Score your options against the factors using the default suggested scoring scale or extend it for more scoring options.
