The impact scoring tasking tool allows you to select factors—the includes ''land, education, and/or victim item attributes—you would like '' to evaluate. After selecting the factorsbe addressed (that is, you assign weights to each factor. The weight is a numerical value that signifies the importance ''objective'' of the factor relative to other factorstask) and ''work items'' such as surveys, clearances, education activities and its effect on the impact score for the locationQMs. The combination of factors and their weights define a scenario Any other related information can be included in the impact scoring template. You can define an unlimited number of scenarios with different factors and weights to test and compare the resulting impact scoresbinder.
The impact scoring Depending on local standard operating procedures (SOPs), the tasking tool allows you to limit the impact scoring to specific country structure areas and time periods. You can customise the scoring ranges which are be used to group the locations in classifications manage activities for one land or several land, or for monitoring a specific organisation that denote levels of impactwas tasked.
