an application of the ahp in Vendor Selection of a telecommunications system
Omega-international Journal of Management Science, 2001Co-Authors: Maggie C Y Tam, V Rao M TummalaAbstract:Vendor Selection of a telecommunications system is an important problem to a telecommunications company as the telecommunications system is a long-term investment for the company and the success of telecommunications services is directly affected by the Vendor Selection decision. Furthermore, the Vendor Selection of a telecommunications system is a complex multi-person, multi-criteria decision problem. The group decision-making process can be improved by a systematic and logical approach to assess priorities based on the inputs of several people from different functional areas within the company. The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) can be very useful in involving several decision-makers with different conflicting objectives to arrive at a consensus decision. In this paper, an AHP-based model is formulated and applied to a real case study to examine its feasibility in selecting a Vendor for a telecommunications system. The use of the proposed model indicates that it can be applied to improve the group decision making in selecting a Vendor that satisfies customer specifications. Also, it is found that the decision process is systematic and that using the proposed AHP model can reduce the time taken to select a Vendor.

Application of facility location modeling constructs to Vendor Selection problems
European Journal of Operational Research, 1994Co-Authors: John R. Current, Charles A. WeberAbstract:Abstract The Selection of Vendors, and the determination of order quantities to be placed with those Vendors are important decisions in distribution planning. To date, there have been few mathematical programming approaches to analyze such decisions. In this paper, we demonstrate that Vendor Selection problems may be formulated within the mathematical constructs of facility location modeling. As a consequence, it is expected that the extensive literature devoted to formulating and solving facility location problems may be utilized in formulating and solving specific Vendor Selection problems.

A multiobjective approach to Vendor Selection
European Journal of Operational Research, 1993Co-Authors: Charles A. Weber, John R. CurrentAbstract:Abstract Purchases from Vendors involve significant costs for many firms. Decisions related to these purchases include the Selection of Vendors and the determination of order quantities to be placed with the selected Vendors. Such decisions are frequently multiobjective in nature. That is, they are evaluated by more than one criterion. At least 23 criteria for various Vendor Selection problems have been identified. In this article, we present a multiobjective approach to systematically analyze the inherent tradeoffs involved in multicriteria Vendor Selection problems. The approach is motivated by, and demonstrated with, an actual purchasing problem facing a division of a Fortune 500 company.

Vendor Selection criteria and methods
European Journal of Operational Research, 1991Co-Authors: Charles A. Weber, John R. Current, W C BentonAbstract:Abstract The Vendor Selection process has undergone significant changes during the past twenty years. These include increased quality guidelines, improved computer communications, and increased technical capabilities. Given radical changes in the purchasing Selection process, it is appropriate to review the past research and to determine its relevance to the supplier Selection decision. This paper reviews, annotates, and classfies 74 related articles which have appeared since 1966. Specific attention is given to the criteria and analytical methods used in the Vendor Selection process. In response to the increased interest in Just-In-Time (JIT) manufacturing strategies, and analysis of JIT's impact on Vendor Selection is also presented. Finally, conclusions and potential areas for future research are presented.
