Partnership Target Ranking is a ready-made use case for Innovation. It ships under the Prioritisation Panel template.
For innovation leads. You get each seat's ranking, the aggregated list with a cut line, where the seats disagree and how stable the line is. Claims are cited or marked as gaps.

The decision
Rank these 12 candidate partners for a co-development deal against our fit criteria.
Who ranks
A partner is ranked on fit and on what can go wrong. Compliance and regulatory fit can remove a candidate that looks strong on strategy.
| Seat | What it ranks from | Why it is at the table |
|---|---|---|
| Ecosystem Intelligence Orchestrator | Strategic fit, capabilities and the partner’s record from public sources. | Company disclosures and deal records. |
| Global Commercial Compliance Officer | Integrity, interaction rules and the partner’s compliance history.2 | The EFPIA Code and public enforcement records. |
| Regulatory Strategist | Regulatory track record and capacity to run the development. | Agency records. |
| Global Brand Lead | Commercial complementarity and geographic reach. | Market data. |
What the run does
Fit criteria are stated first. The criteria and their scale are fixed before any partner is ranked. Partners are not scored from their own marketing alone.1
A knock-out is not averaged away. A partner that fails a compliance or integrity criterion is marked as failing and not offset by strong scores elsewhere.2
Sensitivity. The report tests the cut line with commercial reach weighted more and with compliance weighted more.
Recommended length
Standard
Four angles weigh the list differently. Standard depth gives each a seat, with disagreement, value versus effort and sensitivity, in about four pages.
You can pick another length on the form. The other two stay available.
Assumptions the run makes
The run states the assumptions behind its criteria and its cut line, and says what each gap limits. Examples for this list:
- Public sources describe each partner accurately.
- The partner’s priorities match its stated strategy.
- The 12 are the real candidates.
Standards, guidance and sources
Frame
The decision practice behind the memo itself is on the template page.
What gets flagged
Any partner ranked from its own materials, any compliance concern, and any partner on which seats split widely.
What arrives
- The question, criteria and items
- The cut line and the top group
- How each seat ranked
- The aggregated ranking
- Where the seats disagree
- Value versus effort
- Sensitivity of the cut line
- Limits and what would change the ranking
What it will not do
The agreement is a simulation by AI specialists and not a panel of real experts. The criteria are fixed before ranking, and the cut line is a recommendation that the decider can move.
It is not due diligence on any partner and does not structure a deal.
It is a simulation by AI specialists and not a panel of real experts. Seats that share a base model are not independent confirmations of each other.
It does not compute a value-of-information analysis. That needs a decision model. It ranks by proxies and says so.
It does not set the weights for you. If none are supplied, the criteria are weighted equally and the report says so.

About the Panel service
Each panelist answers in their own voice, then the discussion is drawn together. You get the question and who was in the room, every position in full, what they agreed on, where they split, and what follows. Disagreements are written down rather than smoothed into a consensus nobody actually holds, because the split is usually the part you needed.
