What is the purpose of the Time-Performance-Value Matrix?

The Time-Performance-Value Matrix is a 2x2 matrix used to evaluate the relative importance of time, performance, and value when making decisions. It helps to prioritize tasks and resources by assigning a score to each of the three criteria. The scores are then used to determine which tasks should be given priority and which resources should be allocated to them.

The matrix is divided into four quadrants, each representing a different combination of time, performance, and value. The top-left quadrant represents tasks that are high in performance but low in value and time. The top-right quadrant represents tasks that are high in performance and value but low in time. The bottom-left quadrant represents tasks that are low in performance but high in value and time. The bottom-right quadrant represents tasks that are low in performance and value but high in time.
