How repeatable is the process?
How clear are the rules / SOP?
How many exceptions occur?
How much human judgment is required?
Are the inputs/data accessible?
Is there a clear process owner?
Compare up to three repetitive processes. The scorecard separates business value from automation readiness so you do not waste time automating the easiest thing instead of the right thing.
Priority combines business impact and automation readiness. It is a planning score, not a guarantee of technical feasibility or financial return.
The tool intentionally scores two separate questions:
Priority score = 55% normalized impact + 45% readiness. Readiness is capped if the process has no clear rules or relies heavily on expert judgment. That prevents a high-cost but chaotic process from automatically appearing to be the best first automation.
