Prioritization of enterprise resource planning systems criteria: Focusing on construction industry
International Journal of Production Economics, 2012Co-Authors: Mirian Picinini Méxas, Osvaldo Luiz Gonçalves Quelhas, Helder Gomes CostaAbstract:Abstract Many organizations use integrated management systems, which are better known as ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems. The use of these systems has led to the discussion of methods to evaluate them, taking into account multiple perceptions and evaluation criteria. First, based on a review of the literature regarding the implementation and application of multi-criteria models for the evaluation of ERP systems, a set of ERP system selection criteria and Subcriteria is proposed for the application of ERP to companies in the construction industry, because there is a greater need to support the Brazilian civil construction organizations, where there is shortage of this type of system. Subsequently, after the validation of these criteria by a group of information technology (IT) specialists, 79 respondents drawn mainly from the construction industry and IT participated in a field study to examine their perceptions of the importance of these criteria. The study showed that the financial, business and software criteria were most important for the respondents. In addition, the importance of the Subcriteria of each criteria group was also presented to assist decision makers when selecting ERP systems.

A Set of Criteria for Selection of Enterprise Resource Planning ERP
International Journal of Enterprise Information Systems, 2013Co-Authors: Mirian Picinini Méxas, Osvaldo Luis Gonçalves Quelhas, Heder Gomes Costa, Valdir De Jesus LameiraAbstract:Information systems have evolved at a continual pace since administrations began to develop greater interest in production processes and supply chains. This created systems like Enterprise Resource Planning ERP, Material Requirements Planning MRP, and Manufacturing Resources Planning MRPII. This research discusses a literature search conducted to map the multicriteria models used to select ERP systems. As a result, this article proposes criteria and Subcriteria to be used in the selection of ERP systems. The basic structure is developed around a tree and Subcriteria tree that can be used as a checklist for companies wishing to acquire an ERP system.

An Analytic Hierarchy Process Approach for Prioritisation of Strategic Objectives of Sustainable Development
Sustainability, 2021Co-Authors: Zsuzsanna Katalin Szabo, Zsombor Szádoczki, Sándor Bozóki, Gabriela C. Stănciulescu, Dalma SzaboAbstract:Sustainability is one of the world’s fundamental objectives, and a wide variety of information types, parameters, and uncertainties need to be appraised and managed to assess it. In the present paper, Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) is used to prioritise the criteria of sustainable development based on regularly published indicators. In line with most approaches in the literature, the main criteria are Economy, Society and Environment. Complex criteria are decomposed into Subcriteria until the performance with respect to them can be measured directly. Weights of importance are calculated by the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), in decision support system PriEsT. The model is flexible to both the modification of criteria and re-weighting, and the PriEsT file is supplemented to the paper. Moreover, the results can also be applied in decisions on resource allocation. The proposed methodology has the potential of resulting in a new composite index to measure, compare or rank countries and regions regarding sustainable development or one of its Subcriteria, as well as to track, year by year, the improvements or the impact of the policies introduced.

definition of criteria for overall assessment of animal welfare
Animal Welfare, 2007Co-Authors: R Botreau, Isabelle Veissier, Andrew Butterworth, M B M Bracke, Linda J KeelingAbstract:Welfare is multidimensional, comprising good health, comfort, expression of behaviour, and so on. Its overall assessment therefore requires a multicriteria evaluation. The set of criteria shall be exhaustive (no missing item), minimal (only necessary items), agreed by stakeholders, and legible (a limited number of criteria). Furthermore, the interpretation from one criterion shall not depend on that from another. We propose a set of 12 Subcriteria grouped into four criteria: feeding, housing, health and optimised emotional states. This work will assist in developing measures to be used on-farm to form a European standard for overall assessment of animal welfare.
