APPLICATIONS
Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) is a widely used approach for evaluating the economic feasibility of different projects or policies.
While CBA is powerful, it often focuses solely on financial metrics, potentially overlooking other important factors.
D-Sight specializes in integrating multi-criteria analysis (MCA) with CBA to offer a more holistic and nuanced approach to decision-making.
Cost-Benefit Analysis is a valuable tool, but it has its limitations, primarily its focus on monetary aspects. Multi-Criteria Analysis (MCA) complements CBA by incorporating additional dimensions into the evaluation process, making it more comprehensive and robust.
MCA enriches CBA by allowing for the simultaneous evaluation of multiple criteria, such as social impact, environmental sustainability, and long-term viability. This ensures a more comprehensive understanding of the project’s benefits and costs, beyond just financial metrics.
Different stakeholders may have different priorities and perspectives on what constitutes a ‘benefit’ or a ‘cost.’ MCA allows for the inclusion of these diverse viewpoints, making the decision-making process more democratic and transparent.
Market conditions, stakeholder preferences, and project scopes can change. MCA offers the flexibility to adapt the evaluation criteria to reflect these changes, ensuring that your Cost-Benefit Analysis remains relevant and robust.
MCA can incorporate both quantitative financial data and qualitative factors like social or environmental impact, providing a more nuanced and comprehensive evaluation.
