Prioritization Matrix

A structured method that scores and ranks initiatives or requirements using criteria that carry assigned weights.

Key Points

  • Define clear criteria (e.g., value, cost, risk, compliance) and assign weights that reflect strategic importance.
  • Score each option against the criteria; calculate a weighted total to determine the order of priority.
  • Provides a transparent, repeatable approach that helps align stakeholders and reduce prioritization bias.
  • Works well for backlog refinement, portfolio selection, and release planning; can be revisited as priorities change.

Example

A product team compares four features using criteria: customer value (40%), effort (20%), risk reduction (20%), and revenue impact (20%). They score each feature 1-5 per criterion, multiply by the weights, sum the results, and sort the features by the total to decide what to build next.

PMP Example Question

  1. MoSCoW technique
  2. Prioritization Matrix
  3. Kanban board
  4. Affinity diagram

Correct Answer: B — Prioritization Matrix

Explanation: A prioritization matrix applies weighted criteria to score and rank items, producing a defensible order of work.
