"A prioritization matrix is a simple tool that provides a way to sort a diverse set of items into an order of importance. It also identifies their relative importance by deriving a numerical value for the priority of each item.
The matrix provides a means for ranking projects (or project requests) based on criteria that are determined to be important. This enables a department to see clearly which projects are the most important to focus on first, and which,
if any, could be put on hold or discontinued." [oqi.wisc.edu/ resourcelibrary/ uploads/ resources/ Project_ Prioritization_ Guide_ v_ 1.pdf]
