Claim:
1. A computer-implemented method of analyzing a set of prioritization scores corresponding to respective scored entities and developed from criteria comparison matrices that compare how well pairs of scored entities match respective criteria, the method comprising: accessing, by a computer system, a database to retrieve the set of prioritization scores; determining, for at least one of the scored entities having a first prioritization score below a first threshold prioritization score and based upon the set of prioritization scores, a numerical difference between the first prioritization score and the first threshold prioritization score; determining, for a first plurality of state changes to the criteria comparison matrices, first corresponding changes to the first prioritization score; determining, for a second plurality of state changes to the criteria comparison matrices, second corresponding changes to the first prioritization score; generating, using the first corresponding changes and using the second corresponding changes, a numeric distribution indicating relative numeric contributions of at least the first plurality of state changes and the second plurality of state changes to reducing the numeric difference; selecting, based on the numeric distribution indicating that relative numeric contributions of the first corresponding changes to reducing the numeric difference is greater than a second threshold value and relative numeric contributions of the second corresponding changes to reducing the numeric difference is less than the second threshold value, the first plurality of state changes; generating, an electronic recommendation message that recommends using the first plurality of state changes to improve the first prioritization score for the at least one scored entity; and transmitting the electronic recommendation message.
