In this study, a fuzzy
multiple criteria decision-making approach is proposed to select an industrial
engineer among ten candidates in a manufacturing environment. The industrial
engineer selection problem is a special case of the personal selection problem.
This problem, which has hierarchical structure of criteria and many decision
makers, contains many criteria. The evaluation process of decision makers also
includes ambiguous parameters. The fuzzy AHP is used to determine the weights
for evaluation criteria. The consistencies of pair-wise comparisons matrices
are controlled and a crisp overall performance value is obtained for each
candidate based on the Best Non-fuzzy Performance Value. The sensitivity of the
candidates’ overall performance values is analyzed by taking into account both
the weight of decision makers and the weights of basis criteria. The candidates
are also evaluated by fuzzy TOPSIS method and the result obtained by fuzzy AHP
is compared with the result achieved by fuzzy TOPSIS.
