Adaptability	The degree to which an intervention can be adapted, tailored, refined, or reinvented to meet local need.
Trialability	The ability to test the intervention on a small scale in the organization, and to be able to reverse course (undo implementation) if warranted.
Complexity	Perceived intricacy or difficulty of *the innovation*, reflected by duration, scope, radicalness, disruptiveness, centrality, and intricacy and number of steps required to implement.
Design Quality & Packaging	Perceived excellence in how the intervention is bundled, presented, and assembled.
Cost	Costs of the intervention and costs associated with implementing that intervention, including investment, supply, and opportunity costs.
