This process overview presents our structured approach to decision-making, incorporating model definition, precise measurement, insight synthesis, resource allocation, and the generation of detailed reports.
- structure the decision model by identifying the objectives and alternatives, contributions, and other model definition and evaluation settings
- accurately measure (collect input) the importance of competing objectives and alternatives with respect to the objectives
- synthesize (results & consensus) information, expertise, and judgments, and conduct what-if and sensitivity analyses
- allocate resources to a combination (portfolio) of alternatives if desired
- generate and download the dashboard and reports (results) of the judgment data, model definition, etc.
After logging in to Comparion, you will be redirected to the Models list tab as shown below. If you have existing Comparion models, you will see the active models on this page. 
You can open an existing model by clicking on the model name. You can see several commands by clicking the arrow icon to the right of the model name, or by simply right-clicking a model row.
You can create a new model in various ways:
- New Model-- creates a new model using the default options set.
- Upload From File -- creates a project from a file previously downloaded from a Comparion model and stored on your computer.
- New from Template -- creates a model from one of the stored Comparion templates.
When a Comparion model is open, the top-level menus (see Process Overview) described above are displayed:
Hovering over the top menu will display the sub-pages you can go to.
Alternatively, clicking on a top-level menu opens its overview page, providing a brief description along with widgets related to the same menu when hovering over the top menu.
You can view a more detailed help specific to each Comparion screen by clicking Help at the top right of each screen, or you can navigate our Full Help Center.
