MCA – The basic tasks
1. Identifying criteria (in this case sustainability criteria) against
which each option is to be assessed;
2. Scoring each option according to each criterion, i.e. defining
how well each option performs against each criterion;
3. Weighting each criterion, that is, making a value-based
decision as to how important a particular criterion is in
relation to each other criterion;
4. Analysing the results by combining the scores and weights
for each criterion to generate a picture of the overall
performance of each option
