![]() Priority matrix diagrams are a category of quantitative analytical tools found within the seven management tools (or 7M tools) of the Six Sigma method. For example, using a semi-quantitative, analytical approach, you can utilize priority matrix tools to screen project proposals and gain buy-in from project sponsors and executive leadership. ![]() Use these tools when it is necessary to evaluate several criteria and avoid the influence of context, the different views of multiple stakeholders, and the customer/user needs in project (or product) prioritization and planning phases. Priority matrix tools provide project stakeholders with a resource to resolve disagreements openly, narrow down all proposals to the best solutions, and increase the chances of a successful project by avoiding hidden agendas and promoting consensus. Using a priority matrix tool for project prioritization and selection is a practical application of project planning and analysis techniques, made accessible by authors Michael Brassard ( The Memory Jogger 2) and David Allen ( Getting Things Done). In Six Sigma, project selection is critical to the overall quality improvement process. ![]()
