How the scores are computed

Each indicator is scored from 0 to 100. A pillar is the mean of its scored indicators; the overall score is the mean of the pillars. Taking in charge within 48 hours and written replies only count requests older than 48 hours, so a request just received neither lowers nor raises them. No personal data is published.
