Scores and scales
A total score below 75%, or 20 points within any of the four categories, indicates significant remaining potential for improvement in your organisation. This is further explained below.
| Satisfactory > 75 % (20 points) | Not satisfactory < 75 % (20 points) |
|
|---|---|---|
| Total score | Indicates an organisation in good shape when it comes to exploiting the full potential of strategic decision analysis. It is likely that the organisation has a strategic advantage over competing organisations with sustainable long-term performance. | Indicates an organisation with one or several challenges to overcome in order to fully exploit the potential of using decision analysis as an approach to decision making. It is likely that the organisation will benefit from a decision analysis improvement program. |
| Management support | Indicates an organisation with direct support and engagement from top management. It is likely that the organisation is renowned for effective investment decisions in existing and new assets. Management is in position to take a portfolio view on the strategic direction of the corporation, making sure there is a sound balance between short and long terms goals. | Indicates an organisation with insufficient support and engagement from top management. It is likely that management would benefit from attending focused training in decision analysis covering the fundamentals required to gain insight from decision modelling results and become more aware of how decision analysis provides a great basis for active project and portfolio management. |
| Organisational awareness | Indicates an organisation where decision analysis is a recognised approach to address decision problems throughout the organisation. It is likely that decision analysis has become an integrated part of the culture in the organisation and that cross-discipline collaboration within project teams is the norm. | Indicates an organisation with limited recognition of decision analysis as an effective and value-creating approach to address decision problems. It is likely that projects find it difficult to adopt the methodology and that decision analysis successes are few and far between. Relevant initiatives can be lunch-and-learns targeting key stakeholders and relevant personnel. |
| Structured decision processes | Indicates an organisation with structured decision processes and close interactions between management and project teams. It is likely that the organisation experience fewer late-stage changes than its competitors and is able to systematically present alternatives, consequences and economic value to guide decision makers towards the optimal set of decisions. | Indicates an organisation were decision processes are not fully in place to align management and project teams and where the process does not stimulate cross-disciplinary collaboration from start to end. It is likely that projects suffer from late-stage changes as new decision alternatives and information surface, and this may have a serious value-deterioriating effect on the project economics. |
| Decision analysis skills | Indicates an organisation where the principles and methodology of decision analysis are well understood. It is likely that the organisation has a strong network of decision analysts that are able to influence business decisions through their experience and their abilities to prepare a clear and comprehensive decision basis. | Indicates an organisation with too few professionals that have the required understanding of the principles and methodology of decision analysis to be able to provide management with high quality decision support. It is likely that the organisation misses out on new business opportunities or sub-optimises projects that have additional value creating potential. |
