“…Further, Pomerol and Barbar-Romero [15] indicated that the weighted sum algorithm implies that one unit lost in one criterion is exactly compensated by one unit gained in the other. Thus, having multiple non-cost criteria might make it difficult for decision-makers to evaluate the trade-off that they are getting between cost and non-cost criteria.…”

Best value has been used for more than two decades in the procurement of design-build highway projects in the United States. The question of whether this type of procurement selects best-value proposers has been raised by several authors. Considering procurement data from 128 projects procured between 2000 and 2022, this chapter aims to provide insights on the impact that different types of best-value award algorithms have in the selection of design-builders as well as answers to the question of whether or not best-value procurement is actually selecting the best-value proposers. Ultimately, the chapter will reflect on lessons learned that might help highway administrators plan to use or use the best value in procuring highway projects.

“…Belton and Elder (1992) and Deckro et al (1982) dealt with the problem of scheduling using multiple criteria. Pomerol and Barba‐Romero (1993) provided a large number of industrial examples. An algorithm using multiple criteria aims to select one or more solutions from several possible solutions by using a set of criteria to estimate relative preferences.…”

“…An algorithm using multiple criteria aims to select one or more solutions from several possible solutions by using a set of criteria to estimate relative preferences. Decision‐making using multicriteria algorithms has been developed by various authors (Gravel et al , 1992; Korhonen et al , 1992; Pomerol and Barba‐Romero, 1993; Roy and Bouyssou, 1993; Roy, 1985; Zeleny, 1982). These works have been based on concepts presented by Roy and Bouyssou (1993).…”

PurposeThis research paper proposes that the conduct of supplier relationships can be improved through a “self‐organized logistical network”.Design/methodology/approachAn analysis has been conducted on logistical supply chain which ensures to define a self‐organized logistical network. In such a network, each supplier can evaluate its own performance by using a decision‐making method involving multiple criteria. Indeed, such method is therefore recommended to reach a satisfactory solution. For that, a typology of performance was proposed and a multiple criteria method was chosen. Indeed, among several methods available, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method has been chosen.FindingsThe paper suggests quantifying an evaluation of each potential supplier who responds to a call for proposal from a customer, according to rules and criteria that are impartial and common to all. The process enables the emergence of the “best” supplier. The proposed approach allows a balance to be achieved between load and capacity at the supplier level, and produces a smoothing of the load curve among the various suppliers with the long‐term objective of establishing a fair system among the suppliers on the network. Our approach suggests a customer‐supplier (C‐S) relationship control where all entities C‐S partners, communicate and negotiate to respond as best as possible to the customers requirements. To each supplier, we associate a decision‐making centre through which he can self evaluate his performance in order to be able to take part to negotiations within a self organized logistical network.Originality/valueThe research focuses particularly on the study of the decision‐making centre.

Identifying anthropogenic and natural causes of wildfires by maximum entropy method-based ignition susceptibility distribution models

Turkey has a high potential for wildfires along its Mediterranean coast because of its dense forest cover and mild climate. An average of 250 wildfires occurs every year with more than 10,000 hectares destroyed due to natural and human-related causes. The study area is sensitive to fires caused by lightning, stubble burning, discarded cigarette butts, electric arcing from power lines, deliberate fire setting, and traffic accidents. However, 52% of causes could not be identified due to intense wildfires occurring at the same time and insufficient equipment and personnel. Since wildfires destroy forest cover, ecosystems, biodiversity, and habitats, they should be spatially evaluated by separating them according to their causes, considering environmental, climatic, topographic and forest structure variables that trigger wildfires. In this study, wildfires caused by lightning, the burning of agriculture stubble, discarded cigarette butts and power lines were investigated in the provinces of Aydın, Muğla and Antalya, where 22% of Turkey’s wildfires occurred. The MaxEnt method was used to determine the spatial distribution of wildfires to identify risk zones for each cause. Wildfires were used as the species distribution and the probability of their occurrence estimated. Additionally, since the causes of many wildfires are unknown, determining the causes is important for fire prediction and prevention. The highest wildfire occurrence risks were 9.7% for stubble burning, 30.2% for lightning, 4.5% for power lines and 16.9% by discarded cigarette butts. In total, 1,266 of the 1,714 unknown wildfire causes were identified by the analysis of the cause-based risk zones and these were updated by including cause-assigned unknown wildfire locations for verification. As a result, the Area under the ROC Curve (AUC) values were increased for susceptibility maps.
