How To Create a Prioritization Matrix

Prioritization Matrix sample
Making the prioritization matrix is helpful when all cannot be done at the same time. Prioritization matrix diagram shows the relationships between factors and this helps , to prioritize tasks and resources. This helps you to narrow down variants. By selecting and weighing options you can quickly determine the best choices and direct team to the best destinations. Prioritization matrix helps to identify a best way of implementing the most priority tasks. It is helpful in a case when you have limited resources. ConceptDraw solution for management and planning compiled from the Seven Management and Planning Tools, provides the ability to quickly build Prioritization Matrix diagrams for your project using special template.

PROBLEM ANALYSIS. Prioritization Matrix

Prioritization matrix - Sales affecting factors
ConceptDraw Office suite is a software for Prioritization Matrix diagram making. This diagram ranks the drivers’ factors to determine priority. It identifies the factors of the first priority for analysis of possible corrective actions. It assesses the weight of each factor for each criterion and specifies it in the Prioritization Matrix. The total sum of weights for a factor’s criteria indicates its priority.

You can design the Prioritization Matrix by hand on the paper, but we offer you the most easier way - to use the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with Seven Management and Planning Tools Solution from the Management Area.
"A prioritization matrix is a simple tool that provides a way to sort a diverse set of items into an order of importance. It also identifies their relative importance by deriving a numerical value for the priority of each item.
The matrix provides a means for ranking projects (or project requests) based on criteria that are determined to be important. This enables a department to see clearly which projects are the most important to focus on first, and which,
if any, could be put on hold or discontinued." [oqi.wisc.edu/ resourcelibrary/ uploads/ resources/ Project_ Prioritization_ Guide_ v_ 1.pdf]
The sales activity prioritization matrix example was created using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the solution "Seven Management and Planning Tools" from the Management area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

Cause and Effect Analysis. Root cause tree diagram template
Cause and Effect Analysis - The Seven Management and Planning Tools is a tool for Cause and Effect Analysis that allows users to analyze the root causes for factors that influenced the problem. This diagram is constructed separately for each highly prioritized factor. The Diagram is then used for further formulation of potential actions.

Corrective Action Planning

Corrective Action Planning. Opportunity prioritization matrix
One of the stages of the problem's solving process scenario is Corrective Action Planning. Corrective action planning define people and groups involvement in corrective actions by roles, identify logical sequences of scheduled actions and critical path of problem solving, identify possible risks of action plan and propose preventive actions.

"Prioritization Matrix ... tool is used to prioritize items and describe them in terms of weighted criteria. It uses a combination of tree and matrix diagramming techniques to do a pair-wise evaluation of items and to narrow down options to the most desired or most effective. Popular applications for the Prioritization Matrix include Return-on-Investment (ROI) or Cost-Benefit analysis (Investment vs. Return), Time management Matrix (Urgency vs. Importance), etc." [Seven Management and Planning Tools.
