Abstract
The main purpose of this research is to provide a good insight into the use of
analytic network process (ANP) that is a multiple criteria decision-making
methodology in evaluating the supplier selection problems. Supplier selection
problems are complex problems, which have many qualitative and quantitative
concerns. In this study, an ANP model as a framework for evaluation of the
most important factor and selecting strategic supplier is proposed. ANP can be
used as a decision analysis tool to solve multi-criteria supplier selection
problems that contain interdependencies. ANP is a complex methodology and
requires more comparisons and efforts than the traditional AHP. To show the
application of the proposed mode, a case as an example is proposed.
