The present work has as main objective the development and presentation of a model for supplier’s evaluation. The proposed model includes the criteria of the lean concept and provides a comprehensive analysis for decision-making in the area of supplies. The work involved 05 steps: (i) identify and select the main criteria for lean suppliers management; (ii) perform the weighting of criteria using the AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process); (iii) define the indicators to be used for the suppliers analysis in every sub-criteria; (iv) calculate the relative weight of each indicator through the analysis of interdependence between the sub-criteria and indicators; (v) testing partially the model through the application of the same in a product group in the reality of a company. The main contribution of this paper is to propose a model that combines the method AHP (Analytic Hierarchy Process) used for multiple criteria decision-making method with QFD (Quality Function Deployment) able to translate these criteria in guidelines for the supply management. From a practical point of view, the importance of this article is to present a relatively simple model for the systematization of building supply indicators. The obtained results recommend the use of this template.
