TEC was coined "the Rolls-Royce of decision support tools" by ZDNet

tools help you measure business value and risk, reduce cost and
time in making informed decisions, automate the RFI/RFP process,
and build a strong case. Free research and newsletter.
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 vendor’s 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.
TEC helps the IT professional in the Enterprise Technologies community.
reduce the time and cost involved in complex technology decisions.
Our team of consultants and technical specialists has the knowledge
and experience required to effectively assist clients in maximizing
