[1] It was developed to evaluate to evaluate ideas and alternatives against the criteria in the process (baseline). [2] In other words, the technique helps to determine which alternatives are most suitable for the product/process. [3] Simple to use, it can be used by both individuals and groups whenever there is need to decide of several alternatives. In the engineering, it helps to select between a number of design alternatives. [4] {{:fPugh Chart.png|}}
