This paper gives an overview of the PROMETHEE methodology for MCDM. It starts with general comments on Multicriterion problems, stressing that a Multicriterion problem cannot be treated without additional information related to the preferences and the priorities of the decision-makers. The information requested by PROMETHEE is particularly clear and easy to define for both decision-makers and a...

Important elements for the success of the PROMETHEE methods have been the development of numerous extensions and interactive software. The purpose of the paper is to show the evolution of the PROMETHEE methods and of their software implementation over time. Starting with PROMCALC and the first visual sensitivity analysis tools (Walking Weights), we stress less known extensions of the methodolog...

This research paper aims to give a new dimension to the decision maker by proposing a hybrid model of analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and preference ranking organisation method for enrichment evaluation (PROMETHEE) in 3PL selection. It uses an integrated approach of AHP-PROMTHEE as a selection methodology to select an efficient and requisite 3PL firm for a manufacturer. A relatively new and us...

PROMETHEE and GAIA belong to the family of multi-criteria outranking methods. A key aspect of their successful application to real problems relies on the existence of user-friendly software implementing these approaches. Following PROMCALC and DECISION LAB 2000, D-Sight is the third generation of PROMETHEE and GAIA based applications. It offers multiple interactive and visual tools that help th...

Purpose Making techniques PROMETHEE, direction of research in this emerging field. Design/Methodology/Approach: literature related to MCDM techniques PROMETHEE, ELECTRE, VIKOR and TOPSIS. Literature has been segregated to understand various issues and work related to MCDM techniques PROMETHEE, ELECTRE, VIKOR and TOPSIS. A detailed review is used to sort out the literature and develop the resear...

A major competitive advantage of production and service systems is establishing a proper maintenance policy. Therefore, maintenance managers should make maintenance decisions that best fit their systems. Multi-criterion decision-making methods can take into account a number of aspects associated with the competitiveness factors of a system. This paper presents a multi-criterio...

The Multiple Criteria Decision Aiding (MCDA) has been a fast growing area of operations research and management science during the last decades, while the PROMETHEE (Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluations) is one of the well-known MCDA methods with ranking the alternatives from the best to the worst. In this paper, we propose a new outranking method called Prioritized...
