The aim of this paper is to investigate the multiple attribute decision making problems to deal with the supplier selection in supply chain management with interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy information. Based on the traditional project method, calculation steps for solving interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy multiple attribute decision-making problems with known weight information are given...

Abstract—Considering its need to trade-off multiple criteria exhibiting vagueness and imprecision, supplier selection is an important multi-criteria decision making problem. Vague and imprecise judgments inherent in numerous features of supplier selection call for using linguistic assessments rather than exact numerical values. In this paper, a novel fuzzy multi-criteria group decision making a...

Supplier selection problem is an important issue in supply chain management and includes both tangible and intangible factors. Within the effect of the intangible factors, decision making in supplier selection problem includes a high degree of fuzziness and uncertainties in practice. In academic research to handle this uncertainty and vagueness, Fuzzy Set Theory is used as an effective tool. Th...

Purpose – This paper describe the development of the fuzzy logic model approach to supply chain and its value for managers by illustrating its application to supplier performance appraisals. Design/methodology/approach – Measuring supplier performance possesses the properties of multi-dimension and multi-scale, it increases the complexity of the aggregation and assessment process. A focal compa...

Supplier evaluation and selection is a critical decision process for companies in order to gain competitive advantage. Decision models focusing on risk minimization have recently received increasing attention in supplier selection literature. In this paper, risk factors, which incorporate qualitative as well as quantitative data, are employed in fuzzy data envelopment analysis for obtaining eff...

Efficiency and effectiveness of the organization is result ofmanagement performance and supply chain structure.Today, several factors in selection the supplier or the best combination of suppliers have been identified that this issue would increase the complexity of suplier selecting.This study investigates the application of Fuzzy Delphi in order to identify the important factors in selecting ...

The selection of suppliers had always been a key point of the supply chain management, directly impact the operation of supply chain. In this context, firstly introduced the study situation of supplier selection, established the evaluation index system based on the research and then puts forward a new method for supplier selection based on intuitionistic fuzzy sets. Finally, using an example to...

For most of managers purchasing is a strategic issue. Thus, to select the suitable suppliers has strategic importance for every company. The objective of supplier selection is to reduce purchasing risk, maximize overall value to the purchaser and build a long term, reliable relationship between buyers and suppliers. Many methods have been proposed and used for supplier evaluation and selection;...

In today’s competitive business world, it is extremely important for decision makers to have access to decision support tools in order to make quick, right and accurate decisions. One of these decision making areas is supplier selection in e-procurement. Supplier selection is a multi-criteria decision making problem that deals with the optimization of conflicting objectives such as quality, cos...

Supplier selection is a multi-Criteria problem. This study proposes a hybrid model for supporting the suppliers’ selection and ranking. This research is a two-stage model designed to fully rank the suppliers where each supplier has multiple Inputs and Outputs. First, the supplier evaluation problem is formulated by Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), since the regarded decision deals with uncertai...
