TAILIEUCHUNG - Application of the AHP and TOPSIS in project management

This paper presents a multi-criteria decision making method for contractor selection. The proposed study uses six criteria, namely; Experience, Financial stability, Quality performance, Manpower resources, Equipment resources and Current workload for evaluating different contractors. | Application of the AHP and TOPSIS in project management Journal of Project Management 3 2018 125 130 Contents lists available at GrowingScience Journal of Project Management homepage Application of the AHP and TOPSIS in project management Armin Jabbarzadeha a Business School McMaster University Ontario Canada CHRONICLE ABSTRACT Article history Selection of an appropriate contractor plays an important role for the success of the accomplish- Received July 5 2017 ment of any construction project.

There are various components involved with the contractor selection and the inter- relationships among the elements are relatively complicated. Relationships among various elements of a problem could be highly nonlinear and any change in the elements would not be necessarily associated with simple proportionality. Moreover human value and judgement systems are essential elements of project problems. Thus the ability to make appropriate decisions plays essential role for the success of a project Al-Harbi 2001 . Multiple criteria decision-making MCDM techniques are the main parts of decision
