Supplier selection using fitradeoff method: an application in laboratories for agricultural research- Conference uri icon

Resumen

  • Decisions in supplier selection problems are an important task for managers, once they need to consider many aspects in order to achieve the objectives set by their companies. Solving this multicriteria problem through a pertinent MCDM/A process will influence the strategic success of an organization (de Almeida et al., 2015; Figueira, Greco, & Ehrgott, 2005). In this paper we model a supplier selection problem set in a Colombian agricultural research company–Company A–and use partial information on preferences to assist the selection of the most suitable laboratory equipment supplier from a set of potential ones.
