GAMESBIDS.COM BIDINDEX

BidIndex
is a mathematical model developed by GamesBids.com that when applied to an Olympic Bid, produces a number that can be used to rate a bid relative to past successful bids - and possibly gauge its potential success.
This complex model is a result of months of research and development by analysts with expertise in statistics, mathematics and the Olympic Bid process. Information for BidIndex is obtained from both public and inside sources.
The primary model looks at the actual Olympic bids voted on by the International Olympic Committee. GamesBids.com
BidIndex
will also analyze selected bids with our National Olympic Committee (NOC) model. These are qualifying bids conducted by the NOC's (e.g. The United States Olympic Committee's selection for the 2012 bid).
While it is impossible for anyone to know which city will win a bid,
BidIndex
combines the current geopolitical and technical status of a bid and projects how it might compete based on past voting patterns. Since the IOC does not always pick the best quality bid,
BidIndex
does not predict the winner or rank the bids. It is designed to measure the competitiveness of each bid on a static scale.
BidIndex
was reviewed in the March 2004 edition of
Significance Magazine
, a publication by the Royal Statistical Society.
