The External Factor Evaluation (EFE) Matrix= 4
ans:(Assign a 1-to-4 rating to each key external factor to indicate how effectively the firm's current strategies respond to the factor, where = 4 the response is superior)
Competitive Profile Matrix (CPM) Rated = 2
ans:(major weakness, 2)
Internal Factor Evaluation (IFE) Matrix= 1
ans: Assign a 1-to-4 rating to each factor to indicate whether that factor represents a major weakness
(rating = 1)
