Assessment Engine

Standardise requirements before buying or implementing. Every requirement has an identifier, a weight, a fit approach and a PoC that proves it — so the platform decision rests on evidence, not a self-assessed score.

35 NERP requirements24 critical requirements100-point assessment framework

Total score on the 100-point framework

The score is the dimension weight multiplied by the weighted fit-to-standard level of each requirement.
