What are Harvey Balls?

Harvey Balls are used in comparison tables to show the degree to which a particular variable meets a particular standard. This type of visualization makes it easier to spot trends and identify those who fall below, meet or exceed the standard.

Example

The following table shows the resulting scores for a request for proposal between 5 potential vendors.
