Narrative Score

The Narrative Score feature enables you to assess and generate scores for Explanation, Corrective Action, and Impact narratives based on seven criteria using the Analyze form.

The Narrative Score feature employs an artificial intelligence tool that utilizes publicly available information and proprietary data created and owned by Deltek. It is provided subject to the Cobra terms. Deltek does not independently verify the accuracy of each score. Users are encouraged to independently review and verify the accuracy of the narrative score.

The criteria for generating the narrative score are as follows:

  • Challenges and mitigation
  • Clarity and conciseness
  • Completeness
  • Future outlook
  • Language and style
  • Metrics and quantification
  • Structure
Attention: For more information on these criteria, see Narrative Score Criteria Summary.
