Materials selection in manufacturing process is an important stage and should be performed in parallel with selection of manufacturing process. In automotive industry, production of green automotive component could utilize the natural sources such as plant fibres. In recent years, several multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques are suggested to choose the best materials for particular application. Materials selection tools for natural fibre composites are studied from past researchers with the summary of the advantage and disadvantages. In addition, new optimization approach in materials selection by using statistical analysis such as multiple linear regression (MLR), response surface methodology (RSM) and Taguchi method (TM) is proposed in this study. The proposed method could evaluate the criteria or attribute in materials selection precisely by analyse the relationship of the parameters, goodness of fit, correlation, analysis of variance (ANOVA), determination of coefficient and the significant criteria in to the desired goal of the design problem.

“…To improve the evaluation and selection process, 10 major factors were determined as the evaluation criteria given higher priority after discussion with the management team: "Stability of product quality"; "Stability of supply capability"; "Reasonableness of quoted price"; "Financial capability and condition"; "Flexibility in changing shipment schedule"; "Potential cooperation in the future"; "Operating control of pre-delivery"; "Satisfaction with claims for damages"; "Exactness for presenting documents to the bank"; and "Control capability of on-time delivery", as shown in Table 4. Possibility of establishing long-term cooperation 5.588 C 7 Operating control of product before delivery 5.529 C 8 Satisfaction with handling claims for damages 5.471 C 9 Exactness for presenting documents to the bank 5.471 C 10 Financial capability and conditions 5.471…”

Abstract:In the aquaculture industry, feed that is of poor quality or nutritionally imbalanced can cause problems including low weight, poor growth, poor palatability, and increased mortality, all of which can induce a decrease in aquaculture production. Fishmeal is considered a better source of protein and its addition as an ingredient in the aquafeed makes aquatic animals grow fast and healthy. This means that fishmeal is the most important feed ingredient in aquafeed for the aquaculture industry. For the aquaculture industry in Taiwan, about 144,000 ton/USD $203,245,000 of fishmeal was imported, mostly from Peru, in 2016. Therefore, the evaluation and selection of fishmeal suppliers is a very important part of the decision-making process for a Taiwanese aquaculture enterprise. This study constructed a multiple criteria decision-making evaluation model for the selection of fishmeal suppliers using the VlseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje (VIKOR) approach based on the weights obtained with the entropy method in a fuzzy decision-making environment. This hybrid approach could effectively and conveniently measure the comprehensive performance of the main Peruvian fishmeal suppliers for practical applications. In addition, the results and processes described herein function as a good reference for an aquaculture enterprise in making decisions when purchasing fishmeal.

“…MAUT aims to obtain the maximum overall utility with tradeoffs of the attainment of some objectives against other objectives. The method develops a utility function based on the decision maker's preference structure, and the utility function is used to find optimal solution (Sanayei, Mousavi, Abdi, & Mohaghar, 2008). Huang (2011) states that MAUT is a quantitative method which has an orderly process to identify and analyse multiple variables to find a solution.…”

Public sector procurement should be a transparent and fair process. Strict legal requirements are enforced on public sector procurement to make it a standardised process. To make fair decisions on selecting suppliers, a practical method which adheres to legal requirements is important. The research that is the base for this paper aimed at identifying a suitable Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) method for the specific legal and functional needs of the Maldivian Public Sector. To identify such operational requirements, a set of focus group interviews were conducted in the Maldives with public officials responsible for procurement decision making. Based on the operational requirements identified through focus groups, criteria-based evaluation is done on published MCDA methods to identify the suitable methods for e-procurement decision making. This paper describes the identification of the operational requirements and the results of the evaluation to select suitable decision models for the Maldivian context.
