We used the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method for development of this model, combining relative and absolute measurement techniques. That combination allowed us to handle a large number of projects and to measure, in an easier way, all variables in the selection. Our research procedure was a case study based on exploratory research and followed by a quantitative modeling approach. Additionally, we performed documental research and conducted non-structured interviews to better understand the research setting and institutional goals. This contributes to propose a more consistent tailoring grant-request and research-funding project selection criteria. This paper contributes to sort out research project proposals that best adhered to the organization's goals, allowing educational-organization managers to handle the problem of limited-resource allocation in the context of large number of project requests.

Evaluation of the socioeconomic and environmental sustainability of banking institutions in Brazil using the Analytic Hierarchy Process with ratings approach

“…According to Saaty (1980), AHP is a tool for multicriteria decision support based on three principles: the structuring of a hierarchy, the stipulation of priorities, and the logical congruence of priorities. This tool is frequently addressed in the literature, which reinforces its application in multiple fields of study Paoli & Moraes, 2011;Ribeiro & Alves, 2017;Rosa et al, 2015).…”

“…To evaluate the relative importance of two criteria or sub-criteria, we used Saaty's fundamental scale (Saaty, 1980), as shown in Table 1. The mathematical equations of the method have not been presented herein as they are easily accessible in the literature (see Ribeiro & Alves, 2017). One of the limitations of the method is the subjective nature of the judgments in the comparison matrix, as these can vary depending on who is calculating the weights (Aharonovitz & Vieira, 2014).…”

Development of a managerial tool for prioritization and selection of portfolio projects using the Analytic Hierarchy Process methodology in software companies

“…The use of the model minimizes the risk of the decision maker falling into traps, since the discussion allows participants to learn and to obtain consensus in the definition of criteria and voting. The managerial tool minimizes problems of power play, allows an integration, information sharing, commitment among decision makers, and team learning (Ribeiro & Alves, 2017).…”

Gerenciamento Do Portfólio Dos Projetos Com a Técnica Ahp Em Uma Ongd Na Guiné-Bissau

“…O ritmo e dinamismo do ambiente de negócios contribuem para que as organizações recorram com mais frequência à adoção de projetos para cumprimento dos seus objetivos. Atualmente, a intensificação das demandas tem contribuído para o aumento do volume e complexidade dos projetos adotados, levando ao surgimento do conceito de gestão de portfólio de projetos que fornece ferramentas para assegurar a avaliação das prioridades de atribuição de recursos alinhados com as estratégias organizacionais (Ribeiro & Alves, 2017).…”
