description BACKGROUND: Multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) is a structured decision-making process that offers greater flexibility to incorporate multiple objectives than cost-effectiveness analysis or benefit–cost analysis.

The methodology of MCDA should ideally incorporate both deliberative and technical processes.
