Categories description

For the evaluation of the maturity level of the category, the following formula is applied:

category maturity level = (r1w1 + r2w2 + r3w3 + ... + rnwn) / (w1 + w2 + w3 + ... + wn)

where:

  • (r1,r2,r3,...,rn) represents category requirements
  • and (w1,w2,w3,...,wn) represents corresponding non-negative weights
