A Hybrid OPA and Fuzzy MARCOS Methodology for Sustainable Supplier Selection with Technology 4.0 Evaluation

A new approach for sustainable supplier selection

Recently, sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) has become one of the important subjects in the industry and academia. Supplier selection, as a strategic decision, plays a significant role in SSCM. Researchers use different multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) methods to evaluate and select sustainable suppliers. In the previous studies, evaluation is solely based on the desirable feature...

Supplier Selection and Evaluation by Fuzzy Multi-Criteria Decision Making Methodology

In this study, an outsourcer evaluation and management system is developed for a manufacturing company by use of Fuzzy goal programming (FGP). A first phase of the methodology evaluation criteria for outsources and the objectives of the company are determined. Considering the fuzziness in the decision data, linguistic variables that can be expressed in generalized fuzzy number are used. The pro...

Developing a Data Envelopment Analysis Methodology for Supplier Selection in the Presence of Fuzzy Undesirable Factors

A hybrid intelligent fuzzy predictive model with simulation for supplier evaluation and selection

Supplier evaluation and selection constitutes a central issue in supply chain management (SCM). However, the data on which to base the corresponding choices in real life problems are often imprecise or vague, which has led to the introduction of fuzzy approaches. Predictive intelligent-based techniques, such as Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS), h...

Hybrid multi-criteria group decision-making for supplier selection problem with interval-valued Intuitionistic fuzzy data

The main objectives of supply chain management are reducing the risk of supply chain and production cost, increase the income, improve the customer services, optimizing the achievement level, and business processes which would increase ability, competency, customer satisfaction, and profitability. Further, the process of selecting the appropriate supplier capable of providing buyerchr('39')s re...
