Selection criteria.
Columns
Concepts generated by the team.
All the concepts generated by the team should be
presented at the same level of detail (using both a written
description and a graphical representation) to allow a
meaningful comparison and an unbiased selection.
If the team is considering more than about 12 concepts, the
multivote technique may be used to quickly choose a
dozen or so concepts to be evaluated.
