Abstract
Global competition and fast development of technologies force textile companies to select and purchase efficient machines to maintain their place among competitors. Selection of a knitting machine for a textile company requires a multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) process since several possibly contradictory quantitative and qualitative criteria needs to be considered by the decision makers. In this study, as the MCDM method, “fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process” (F-AHP) and “fuzzy Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluation” (F-PROMETHEE II) methods are integrated (F-AHP-PROMETHEE II) in order to gain from both methods’ benefits. In F-AHP-PROMETHEE II, first, F-AHP is applied to establish the importance weights of criteria and then F-PROMETHEE II is implemented to rank knitting machine alternatives employing the determined weights. A case study is given, where 3 knitting machine alternatives determined by a textile company in Turkey (Uğur Konfeksiyon San. ve Tic. A.Ş) are evaluated based on 10 criteria with the help of 3 company managers acting as decision makers. © IISE and Expo 2023.All rights reserved.
