Explanation:

EFE Matrix stands for External Factor Evaluation Matrix.

It is an analysis tool used in to strategic planning.

The EFE Matrix shows the opportunities and threats of a company.

Both opportunities and threats are external factors.

The information is summarized in a table with two sections (opportunities and threats) and three columns:  weight, a rate and a weighted score.

The format of the EFE matrix is:

Factor                                    Weight       Rate        Weighted Score

            Opportunities

1 .                     W₁                R₁                   S₁

2.                       W₂               R₂                   S₂

3.                       W₃               R₃                   S₃

         Threats    

4.                     W₄                R₄                   S₄

5.                       W₅                R₅                   S₅

The number of rows is not limited. Each opportunity or threat if product of an analysis.

The weights, (W₁, W₂, W₃, W₄, W₅, . . .) represent the relative importance of the particular opportunity of threat has for the company to succeed in the market. The minimum importance is 0.0 and the maxium is 1.0

The weights must be assigned such that the sum of all the weights equal 1.0.
