TEC was coined "the Rolls-Royce of decision support tools" by ZDNet
Q: How is 'Percent Match' calculated?
A: The Percent Match calculation demonstrates the real
power of the eBestMatch Engine. The Percent Match is our patented
calculation that helps IT decision makers avoid some of
the problems with simply using a weighted average (the
Ability to Meet Criteria like Enterprise Technologies for Enterprise Technologies)
calculation is a weighted average.
This calculation becomes useful when the decision maker wishes
to consider the consistency of scores across all of the
criteria in addition to the vendors Ability to Meet Criteria
calculation. The eBestMatch Engine runs through patented
algorithms to generate a Weighted Average Composite
Index (WACI), which is a number between 0 and 1. A WACI
of 1 indicates that a vendors scores were very
consistent throughout the RFI. Those vendors with
a WACI below 1 have inconsistencies in their scores
across the RFI. The degree to which the scores are
inconsistent determines the WACI. The Percent Match
is a simple calculation of: The Ability to Meet
Criteria (x) WACI.
Q: What are eBestMatch, eBestMatch and the eBestMatch Engine?
A: eBestMatch is the powerful software tool behind the Enterprise Technologies Evaluation Center.
It is an enterprise-scale decision support tool that contains several patented
analysis algorithms. It has been referred to as "the Rolls Royce of Decision Support tools"(ZDNet).
For more information on eBestMatch click here. eBestMatch is a simplified web enabled version of eBestMatch.
The eBestMatch Engine is the core engine that powers the TEC Evaluation Centers. The eBestMatch Engine permits
the TEC Evaluation Centers to retain all of the computational and mathematical power of eBestMatch, yet
present the data in a user-friendly manner. This permits the complexity of the eBestMatch software to
remain hidden, but at the same time gives the user a simple, easy-to-use and powerful decision
evaluation tool at their fingertips. When combined with the extensive Knowledge Bases that are
used in the TEC Evaluation Centers, it becomes an invaluable research tool. We are building archives
of information on Enterprise Technologies.
