Overview
With D-Sight, you can rank alternatives from best to worst considering their performances and your preference parameters.
What if you have to select the best sub-set of alternatives considering that :
- you have limited budget,
- you have compulsory alternatives,
- you can not choose B if you choose A,
- ...
After having ranked the alternatives, this plugin allows you to define different types of constraint to find the best sub-set that respects all your constraints.
Illustration
Imagine you have to choose to invest into projects and you have 50 different opportunities. Which projects are you going to choose if you must take into account :
- limited budget,
- limited workforce,
- strategy alignment,
- image impacts,
- social impacts,
- location constraints,
- ...
The subset optimization plugin helps you identify the best options under those additional constraints in a simple 2-steps process.
Step 1 - Rank the Projects
D-Sight helps you rank the projects by taking into account your preferences.
Step 2 - Optimize the Selection
The plugin optimizes the best sub-set of projects (according to global score) considering all the constraints you are facing.
Applications
Many applications require sub-set optimization and prioritization. This is for instance the case in:
- Project Portfolio Management
- Site Location Selection
- Problem optimization
- ...
