ABSTRACT:
Method and apparatus for computer-aided assessment of organizational process or system. Method and apparatus are adapted to display computer displayed questions to an assessor, who then inputs numerical inputs relative to the assessor's perception of the process or system. Filtering techniques inhibit entry of unsupported numerical inputs which may be untrue and/or exaggerated. Sequential questions used in combination provide more accurate assessment of the system or process, thereby enabling focused audits and/or inspections.
