Summary
Scoring systems play a crucial role in the decision-making process in different domains. Their main contribution and importance is to provide a structured and quantitative way of evaluating and comparing different options or alternatives. Scoring systems allow the prioritisation of factors according to their relative importance, increase the level of objectivity, and promote consistency in decision making. These facts have led, at the first stage, to the wide spread of this important tool to assist the decision-making process. However, its actual application has also revealed some serious limitations: oversimplification of complex problems; subjectivity in weighting criteria; lack of flexibility in dynamic environments; and over-reliance on source reliability and data accuracy. These limitations can lead to hesitation in the use of scoring systems.
The project goal is to improve decision-making processes by applying the integrated Decision Intelligence approach, aimed at minimisation of the constraints and limitations of the traditional scoring systems. The proposal and application of the integrated Decision Intelligence approach as a potential solution uses digital technologies and innovative methodologies to improve decision-making processes.
