This worksheet produces a single composite ICP Score (1.0– 5.0) that flows back into the Opportunities database. The ICP Tier formula then bucket-sorts the deal automatically.

<aside> 🎯

Score the scope, not the org. A 10,000-person company with 80 seats in one engineering org is a Tier 1 deployment; the same company with three scattered free workspaces is a Tier 3 prospect. Always score the buying unit.
