Collaboration

Decisions are rarely made in a vacuum. Axiom provides strong collaboration features to ensure that all stakeholders can contribute to the decision-making process securely.

Submitting a Score Suggestion

When team members have varying opinions on how an option should be scored (e.g. Design thinks the vendor's UX is an 8, Engineering thinks it's a 4), users should utilize the Suggestions flow.

1. Open an option's specific hub using the drill-down arrow in your project matrix.
2. Navigate to the Suggestions tab.
3. Click the + Suggestion icon or button.
4. Select the specific scoring criterion you want to adjust.
5. Enter your suggested numeric score, and briefly type out your reasoning in the comment box.
6. Submit your suggestion. It will now be visible to all organization members viewing this option.

Approving a Suggestion

Only managers possessing authoritative rights over the project can ratify score modifications.

1. As a project owner, review the active suggestions listed in the option's hub.
2. Read the reasoning provided by your peer.
3. If you agree with the change, click the Approve button on the suggestion card.
4. The main score for that option is automatically updated to the suggested value.

The Activity Log

Every action taken inside a project—whether it's creating new criteria, modifying options, or approving a peer suggestion—is heavily tracked in the project's Activity log.

This audit log acts as a historical record providing an important paper trail of how and why a decision was reached, effectively tracking all consensus shifts over time.
