Objectives & Targets From the significance rating, a business practicability score was subtracted to give a final score. l Using the aspect with the lowest score from the ranking as the cutoff, anything with a higher score was used when considering objectives and targets. l A total of 14 aspects were used to set objectives and targets. l
