New Worlds Observer is a mission concept designed to find, image, and take spectra of planets around other stars. It consists of a space telescope and a separate starshade that blocks the light from the star and passes the planet's light. One important aspect of designing this mission is finding consistent metrics to measure the system performance. This will allow us to choose the optimal architecture to provide the desired science return. In this poster, we will describe preliminary performance metrics and apply these metrics to identify the best mission to accomplish different science requirements.
