two minor ones are missing and priorities are
mostly clearly established.
Most major objectives are identified, but priorities
are not clearly established.
Most major objectives are not clearly
identified, nor are priorities clearly established.
Major objectives are not identified (or are
misconstrued), and priorities are absent.
Identifying and using relevant source
information
All relevant information is obtained and
information sources are clearly valid.
Recommendations are very well supported by
the information.
Most relevant information is obtained and
most sources are valid. Recommendations are
generally supported by the information.
Most relevant information is obtained, but mixed
with some irrelevant information, though most
sources are valid. Recommendations are partially
supported by the information.
Relevant information is only partially obtained
and/or sources lack validity. Recommendations
are generally not supported by information
collected.
Insufficient information is obtained and/or
sources lack validity. Recommendations are
absent or not supported by information
collected.
Identifying and analysing relevant
constraints

are accurately and thoroughly analysed.

are mostly accurately analysed.
Most relevant constraints are identified, but some
are not adequately addressed or accurately
analysed.

not all relevant and/or not accurately analysed.
Few or no constraints are identified or if some
constraints are identified they are either not
relevant, not analysed, or analysed incorrectly.
Generating conclusions from
understanding of relevant factors

stated criteria, thorough and accurate analysis
and clear understanding of all relevant factors.
