In this paper, the authors present a case study that aims to apply some sound MCDM techniques in the case of Economic Intelligence (EI) and show how the use of strategic information may help deciders to choose among geographic locations in which they could settle their investments. In this regard, the authors propose a new method that uses the multi-criteria decision support of MACBETH to tackle this issue. This method is used to rank thirteen countries likely to be chosen for location in order of preference from good to unfavourable. The integration of the MCDM in Economic Intelligence (EI) permits to rank countries of the Mediterranean according to their territorial competitiveness obtained through the global scores computed by the aforementioned technique of MACBETH. The results obtained allow the authors to affirm that France and Morocco have favourable strategic assets to attract foreign investment.

In environmental projects, decision-making can be a complex and challenging task due to the in-built existence of compromises between environmental, socio-political, and economic factors. This paper explores a systematic approach to developing a decision support concept that includes the analysis of wastewater treatment problems, knowledge acquisition, and the identification and evaluation of criteria that bring forth an optimal solution to the location selection of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). The objective of this research is to develop a decision support concept (DSC) to aid in the planning phases of complex engineering projects, such as the construction of WWTP. The development of the concept starts with an assessment of the issue and an identification of relevant stakeholders accepting their different views and attitudes in an attempt to resolve this issue. The DSC was tested on a real case project—WWTP location selection within the town of Kutina, Croatia. Results indicate that it is possible to develop such a concept based on multicriteria methods on which decision-makers can rely.

Stormwater Infiltration

Nowadays, stormwater infiltration systems are frequently used because of their ability to reduce flows and volumes in downstream sewers, decrease overflows in surface waters and make it possible to recharge groundwater. Moreover, they come in various forms with different uses. Despite these advantages the long term sustainability of these systems is questionable and their real performances have to be assessed taking into account various and sometimes conflicting aspects. To address this problem a decision support system is proposed. It is based on a multicriteria method built to help managers to evaluate the performance of an existing infiltration system at different stages of its lifespan and identify whether it performs correctly or not, according to environmental, socio-economic, technical and sanitary aspects. The paper presents successively: the performance indicators and the way they were built, the multicriteria method to identify if the system works properly and a case study.
