ITPEC FE Morning April 2020 — Question 63 of 80

Weighted Comprehensive Evaluation — multiply each score by its weight and sum to find the best option.

Calculate the weighted total for each proposal:

  • Proposal 1: 4×6 + 3×5 + 3×6 = 24 + 15 + 18 = 57
  • Proposal 2: 4×8 + 3×5 + 3×4 = 32 + 15 + 12 = 59
  • Proposal 3: 4×2 + 3×9 + 3×7 = 8 + 27 + 21 = 56
  • Proposal 4: 4×5 + 3×5 + 3×6 = 20 + 15 + 18 = 53

Proposal 2 has the highest weighted score (59), so it should be prioritized.

Why not others:
- (a) Proposal 1 scores 57 — second highest but still less than 59

- (c) Proposal 3 scores 56 — strong in time and resources but weak in labor savings (weight 4), which drags it down

- (d) Proposal 4 scores 53 — lowest overall

Key rule: In weighted evaluation, multiply each criterion's score by its weight, then sum — the highest total wins. Criteria with higher weights have more influence on the result.
