1. Objective A company wants to evaluate and prioritize suppliers based on their performance in critical areas: Quality (C1), Cost (C2), Delivery Reliability (C3), and Sustainability (C4). The goal is to determine the causal relationships between these criteria to...

Introduction  The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is one of the most powerful and widely used multi-criteria decision-making methods, especially for complex and multi-dimensional problems. This method is based on pairwise comparisons of criteria and alternatives and...

Introduction  The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), developed by Thomas Saaty, is one of the most widely used multi-criteria decision-making methods. It uses pairwise comparisons to assign relative importance (weights) to criteria and alternatives, helping...

Introduction  The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is a structured decision-making method that uses both qualitative and quantitative criteria to rank alternatives. One of the most effective ways to understand and explain AHP is through charts and diagrams. Visual...

Introduction  Decision-making is a fundamental skill in both management and engineering fields. Given the complexity and multi-dimensional nature of problems in these areas, using systematic and scientific methods to analyze and select the best options is essential....

Introduction  Making decisions can be challenging, especially when multiple options and various factors are involved. Whether you're buying a new phone, choosing a university, or selecting a job offer, having a structured approach helps. The Analytic Hierarchy Process...

Introduction In today’s fast-paced world, we are constantly faced with daily decisions—whether choosing a mobile phone, planning a trip, or deciding where to live. Most people rely on gut feelings or habits, but these intuitive approaches don’t always produce the best...

Introduction In many decision-making situations, people often rely on their own intuition and subjective judgment. While intuitive thinking can be useful in simple scenarios, it often fails in complex, multi-criteria problems where bias, inconsistency, and lack of...

Introduction The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is one of the most widely used multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) methods due to its intuitive logic and structured framework. To apply AHP correctly, it is essential to understand its core concepts: pairwise...

Introduction In today's information-driven and increasingly complex world, decision-making has become a multi-layered and sensitive process. When multiple factors, conflicting criteria, and numerous options are involved, traditional decision-making approaches become...
