A Web-based Ally Selection Method for Agile Virtual Enterprise

In the agile virtual enterprise forming process, with the increase of optional scheme, to use the traditional analytic hierarchy process (AHP) to choose ally will produce judgment matrix inconsistency problem. Therefore, combining the AHP and the fuzzy theory, a new ally selection method which is based on web is proposed. The proposed method uses the AHP to calculate the weight of the evaluating indexes, uses the fuzzy matrix to calculate the value of each scheme, and then by merging to get the evaluation result. This paper uses B/S pattern to develop an AVE ally selection system that is based on the method, and combines with the distributor selection of an enterprise to introduce the practical application of the system. The results show that the method can not only eliminate the judgment matrix inconsistency problem, but also integrate group opinion effectively, and access to a fair and reasonable evaluation result. At the same time, to each evaluating indexes, the proposed method can obtain opinions that are relatively consistent.
