This document provides a framework for ranking project priorities. It involves determining success criteria and assigning them weights from 1-5. Current projects are then ranked on how well they meet each success criteria on a scale of 1-5. The weighted scores are calculated and summed to get an overall priority score, with the highest scoring project deemed the highest priority. Key steps include deciding on success criteria and their importance, scoring projects against the criteria, and calculating weighted scores to rank projects.
