Multiattribute decision analysis method for evaluating buildings and building systems. Final report

Multiattribute decision analysis (MADA) methods consider non-financial attributes (qualitative and quantitative) in addition to common financial worth measures when evaluating project alternatives. The report reviews 14 classes of methods for performing MADA. It summarizes their usefulness for screening, ranking, and choosing among projects; their data input requirements; and how each method scores project alternatives. Two methods--the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) and non-traditional capital investment criteria (NCIC)--are described in detail. Assumptions, procedures, strengths, and limitations are described for each.
