Abstract

This document presents screenshots of web-app tool called Stakeholder WEFE Efficiency Evaluation Tool (SWEET). This is a flexible Multi-Criteria Analysis tool that allows the user to creates its own MCA structure. Additionally, financial-economics are included as well, for more realistic scenario comparisons. The tool shows different results such as stakeholder to stakeholder comparisons of weights, which could reveal conflicting interesting and priorities. The main result is a trade-off graph where the user of SWEET can select the reference baseline and different alternatives as well as changing axes. This identifies alternatives (i.e., decision) that could lead to win-win, or lose-lose, or trade-offs. The Tool interface also generates interpretation of these different points on the trade-off graphs. SWEET is well suited for support decision-making by structuring it in MCA. Its easy to use interface and flexibility make it well suited for stakeholder engagement and social learning.
