Note: The spreadsheet formulas that total the project scores for each perspective assume that:
1. The maximum project score for any criteria is 5.
2. The maximum score for any perspective is 5 * the count of project score rows.
The formula is Score = (SUM (Project Score rows)) / (COUNT(Project Score rows) * 5)
