The % columns indicate how well the systems under discussion satisfy the company's requirements regarding the criteria list. For example, system A satisfies the requirements for order processing by 67 %, so A's score for that criterion is 268 (weight 4 x percent 67) while B gets a score of 292 (4 x 73). Assessing all criteria in the same way yields a total score of 3,128 for ERP system A and 3,300 for ERP system B, so B appears to be the better one for the organization. Compared to real-life scoring models, figure 2-3 contains only a very simple model.
