A hybrid intuitionistic MCDM model for supplier selection

Abstract

This paper gives an overview of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Intuitionistic Fuzzy TOPSIS (IFT) methods. This study deals an evaluation methodology based on the AHP-IFT where the uncertainty is handeled with linguistic values. First, the supplier selection problem is formulated by AHP is used to determine weights of the criteria. In the second stage, IFT used to obtain full ranking among alternatives based on opinion of the Decision Makers (DMs). The present model provides an accurate and easy classification in supplier attributes by that have been prioritized in the hybrid model. A numerical example is given to clarify the main developed result in this paper.
