Business feasibility research is needed before business development team decided to start the business. SWOT analysis is an important part of it, since it described Strength – Weaknesses – Opportunity – Threats. However the result have no score, so its makes harder to consider each part in making decision. AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) is one of the method in decision tool to scoring, AHP carry the quantitative analysis of the problem. The combine of SWOT and AHP in feasibility research provide more reliable accurate in decision making. The aim of this paper is to analyze the business feasibility in opening learning centre at Balaraja based on SWOT and AHP method.

Abstract. The wheelchair comfort is a subjective evaluation of users, which is influenced by wheelchair itself, environmental factors and physiological factors. It is difficult to make evaluation about wheelchair comfort by a general approach. In this essay, Analytic Hierarchy Process, based on a scientific decision-making idea which combines qualitative analysis with quantitative analysis, was used to establish the evaluation system about wheelchair comfort indicator, and the weight of each indicator was determined. For this reason, the evaluation of wheelchair comfort is more scientific and reasonable.

The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is one of the widely accepted and frequently used priority assessment methods. A number of studies, which employed the AHP method, have already been carried out in different domains to support their multi-criteria decision-making definitions and applications. However, few researchers have paid attentions to extract and represent the important concepts and their relationships from the AHP method itself. The aim of this study is firstly to propose a way for representing the AHP method as an AHP Ontology together with a set of reasoning rules. Then, a prototype assessment tool is developed to show the possibility of obtaining more flexibility and reusability of this ontological representation.

The halal industry in restaurant chain is lacking a rating system that would help the consumers to choose their preferences and enhance the halal integrity. In this regard, as a first step to develop a halal compliance rating (HCR) tool, the objective of this research is to identify and select the components of best halal practices for restaurants. This was achieved by reviewing existing relevant rating systems, standards, and research papers. The selected ten components were weighed by applying Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method of decision making through the participation of 15 experts where the maximum priority was given to �Hygiene and Food Safety (HFS)� component with a weightage of 22.3%. The least priority was given to �Branding, Packaging, and Labelling (BPL)� with a weightage of 4.4%. The consistency ratio was checked as 0.015. Additionally, the study investigates the auditable and measurable areas of the selected ten HCR components.

Analytic Hierarchy process (AHP) is a powerful method belonging to the full aggregation family of multi-criteria decision-making methods based on pairwise comparisons of objects. Since the information about the problem is usually not complete in real decision-making problems, it is difficult to express precisely the preferences on pairs of compared objects. This problem has been handled in the literature by introducing fuzziness into AHP. However, neither AHP nor its fuzzy extensions can deal with sorting decision-making problems, which form a significant part of decision-making problems. This paper presents the FAHPSort method — a fuzzy extension of the AHPSort method, which is an adaptation of the AHP method for sorting decision-making problems. The FAHPSort method handles the vagueness in the meaning of linguistic terms expressing the intensity of preference of one object over another one. Key properties of the FAHPSort method are described in the paper, and the method is illustrated in a decision-making problem.

Purpose – The changes that occurred in the market, resulting from technological advancement, made companies pay attention to innovation in their processes, products or services, as a way to stand out. To enhance innovation in companies, focusing on leadership is an effective way. In this sense, the present study aimed to develop a model in order to list the priorities related to leadership and its interface with innovation, under the top management perspective of a telecommunications company.Design/methodology/approach – For the development of the model, the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (Fuzzy-AHP) method was used to identify such factors and the best alternatives so that the investigated company can make consistent decisions. Thus, the criteria chosen by the Manager and Director were discovered, as well as the alternatives that they cherish, contributing to the development of innovation within the company.Findings – The results showed that the perception of the two interviewees was similar, however, it is emphasized that they should better choose how to apply innovation within the company.Originality/value – This study opens the way to highlight the importance of the theme of leadership and its interface with innovation for professionals in the management area, favoring decision making, in addition to contributing to the literature, deepening the debate on the theme of leadership and innovation, which is still incipient and needs development.

Purpose – This paper aims to identify and classify the main barriers for adopting circular economy practices using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method for prioritization. The proposed methodology evaluates the importance of different classes of barriers for adopting circular economy practices in a food company and metalworking company. Theoretical framework – This study was based on the current theory of barriers to adopt circular economy practices and multicriteria decision-making. Design/methodology/approach – The Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method was used to assess and prioritize barriers for circular economy practices. Stability was ranked using a sensitivity analysis. Findings – The results indicate significant differences in the classification of barriers. While the food manufacturing company indicate that the main barriers are related to technical information, the metalworking company considered that barriers relating to financial and economic issues have more of an impact. Originality/value – The study contributes to providing insights so that managers have a greater perception of the main difficulties in adopting circular economy practices, in addition, the study also contributes to extending the application of multicriteria decision making methodologies to the circular economy and evaluating the relative importance of the barriers. Keywords - Circular Economy; Analytic Hierarchy Process; multicriteria analysis; barriers; sustainable development.

The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is recognised as one of the most commonly applied methods in the multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) literature. In the AHP, encompassing uncertainty feature necessitates using suitable uncertainty theories, since dealing efficiently with uncertainty in subjective judgements is of great importance in real-world decision-making problems. The neutrosophic set (NS) theory and grey systems are two reliable uncertainty theories which can bring considerable benefits to uncertain decision-making. The aim of this study is to improve uncertain decision-making by incorporating advantages of the NS and grey systems theories with the AHP in investigating sustainability through agility readiness evaluation in large manufacturing plants. This study pioneers a combined neutrosophic-grey AHP (NG-AHP) method for uncertain decision-making modelling. The applicability of the hybrid NG-AHP method is shown in an illustrative real-case study for agility evaluations in the Iranian steel industry. The computational results indicate the effectiveness of the proposed method in adequately capturing uncertainty in the subjective judgements of decision makers. In addition, the results verify the significance of the research in group decision-making under uncertainty. The practical outcome reveals that, to become a more sustainable agile steel producer in the case country, they should first focus on the “organisation management agility” as the most significant criterion in the assessment followed by “manufacturing process agility,” “product design agility,” “integration of information system,” and “partnership formation capability,” respectively.
