The purpose of project selection methods is to determine which project an organization selects

Benefit measurement methods, such as comparative methods, scoring models, contribution to benefits, or economic models

Data models such as utilizing linear, non-linear, dynamic, integer or multi-objective programming algorithms

Two major categories of methods

Financial considerations are important considerations in the project selection process, and the three main financial value evaluation methods are as follows:

Method 1: Net present value analysis

Method 2: Investment rate of return analysis

Method Three: Investment Payback Period Analysis

Determine meeting goals

Make preparations before the meeting
