An assignment-optimisation engine for donated-prize allocation at the suburban club raffle
A research poster from the School of Continuous Improvement describes an assignment-optimisation engine that replaces a suburban club raffle's physical barrel draw, scoring every submitted preference form and allocating each donated prize to whichever ticket-holder's form the model judges the closest fit. Across 386 forms and fourteen raffle nights, the longest and most exhaustively completed forms come to capture most of the season's feature and grand-prize allocations.
