Evaluator Score Variance quantifies the dispersion or disagreement among multiple evaluators when assessing responses to a Request for Quote (RFQ) or proposals against a set of criteria. This metric measures the degree to which individual scores deviate from the average or median score assigned to a particular vendor or technical solution. Its purpose is to identify inconsistencies in the evaluation process and highlight areas requiring calibration or clarification.
Mechanism
The mechanism typically operates within a structured RFQ platform where each evaluator independently assigns scores across predefined categories, often using a numerical or qualitative scale. The system then computes statistical measures, such as standard deviation or inter-rater reliability coefficients, on these assigned scores. In the context of institutional crypto options trading RFQs, this involves aggregating scores from various risk, technical, and compliance teams reviewing a liquidity provider’s offering. The architecture provides tools for visualizing score distribution and flagging significant deviations.
Methodology
The strategic approach addresses score variance through evaluator training, clear rubric definitions, and consensus meetings to align interpretation of evaluation criteria. This methodology involves post-evaluation analysis to understand root causes of disagreement, whether stemming from ambiguous criteria, subjective interpretation, or insufficient data. It aims to improve the objectivity and fairness of vendor selection processes, particularly in complex smart trading system procurements, by enhancing the reliability of assessments.
