The right decision-making software is very useful to reduce biases and “noise” that afflict judgements and can lead to potentially poor choices. 1000minds decision-making software gives you the tools to make important decisions efficiently, fairly and transparently.
Good decision-making can increase your business’ profitability by, for example, helping you choose the best investments or capital projects representing good value for money, or by targeting the right strategic direction. In the health sector, good decision-making can save lives by prioritizing the patients most in need of life-saving treatment. By using 1000minds, your decision-making process is also completely auditable, so your organization and stakeholders can see exactly how and why decisions were made.
Decision-making tools help individuals and groups choose the best option from the alternatives being considered. 1000minds’ user-friendly decision-making tools can be used for many applications, including prioritizing alternatives (e.g. which project, person or option to choose), identifying alternatives that are good value for money when allocating a budget, and group decision-making to build consensus in clusters of stakeholders, employees and the public.
MCDA, also known as Multi-Criteria Decision-Making (MCDM), is a popular methodology for making decisions when multiple criteria (or objectives) need to be considered together. By making the weights and associated trade-offs between the criteria explicit in a structured way, MCDA results in more transparent and consistent decisions.
There are many applications for MCDA, and 1000minds software can be used for all of them, including selecting new projects or investments, shortlisting job applicants, prioritizing patients, ranking funding applications, and much more.
