Use votes
Use a system like dot-voting or ranking to reveal what are the best options. But before doing so, get everyone to validate the method, so that once the results come in, nobody can say: sure, that's the result, but I think the voting criterias aren't the right one.
Choose a person who will decide
Have a decision-maker or group established at the start of the process that will take the decision.
