Supplier selection is usually involved a multi-criteria evaluation to assist decision-making. This study proposed a simple method for vendor selection. The proposed procedure utilizes the structure of criteria in analytic hierarchy process (AHP) model and employs consistent fuzzy preference relations (CFPR) to construct the decision matrices. The advantage of CFPR is computational simplicity an...

The Life Cycle Sustainability Assessment (LCSA) is a proven method for sustainability assessment. However, the interpretation phase of an LCSA challenging because many different single results are obtained. Additionally, performing Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) one way—not only LCSA—to gain clarity about how to interpret results. One common form MCDAs outranking methods. For these typ...

In this paper we extend the PROMETHEE methods to the case of interacting criteria on a bipolar scale, introducing the bipolar PROMETHEE method based on the bipolar Choquet integral. In order to elicit parameters compatible with preference information provided by the Decision Maker (DM), we propose to apply the Robust Ordinal Regression (ROR). ROR takes into account simultaneously all the sets o...

An integrated interactive menu driven software MCDMGDSS was developed to consider multicriterion analysis in group decision making environment. The capability of MCDMGDSS is demonstrated with the case study of Chaliyar river basin planning problem, Kerala, India to find the most suitable configuration of the reservoirs. Eight alternatives are analysed with respect to six noncommensurable discre...

Supplier selection, the process of finding the right suppliers who are able to provide the buyer with the right quality products and/or services at the right price, at the right time and in the right quantities, is one of the most critical activities for establishing an effective supply chain, and is typically a multi-criteria group decision problem. In many practical situations, there usually ...
