SUPPLIER SELECTION IN PROCUREMENT LOGISTICS USING AHP-QFD AND ANP-QFD APPROACH.

Procurement logistics stands out as one of the basic sectors in a logistics company. The other sectors in a company depend on procurement as it can cause downtime and delays that affect the entire company. In addition to the impact on the company itself, procurement can also have an impact on end-users, given that efficient procurement is one of the factors of competitiveness. One of the basic tasks of procurement logistics is the selection of suppliers. For this reason, the aim of this paper was to propose approaches based on AHP-QFD and ANP-QFD methodology in order to select suppliers. On that occasion, the evaluation of three suppliers was performed by applying eight criteria (price, product quality, on-time delivery, location, communication, reliability, flexibility, and reputation). The results of the application of the described methodologies also showed a different ranking of suppliers depending on the chosen methodology. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
