AHP VE BULANIK KAPSAMLI DEĞERLENDİRME YÖNTEMLERİ İLE EN İYİ TEDARİKÇİ SEÇİMİ: BİR TÜRK DERİ FİRMASI ÖRNEĞİ

Günümüzün zorlu rekabet koşulları her sektörde olduğu gibi deri konfeksiyonu alanında da firmaların rekabetçiliklerini korumaları amacıyla, tedarik zinciri yönetimlerini daha etkili bir şekilde yönetmelerini gerektirmektedir. Bu zincirin yönetilmesinde firmanın beklentileri ve kriterlerine en uygun tedarikçinin seçimi önemli bir karar problemi olmaktadır. Çalışma kapsamında, bir Türk deri konfeksiyon firması ele alınmış ve firmanın satın alma yöneticileri ile mamül deri tedariği üzerine bir saha araştırması yürütülmüştür. Elde edilen verilerin analizi amacıyla AHP ve Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation (FCE) yöntemlerinden faydalanılmıştır. Her iki yöntemin avantajları birleştirilerek, mantıklı ve tutarlı sonuçlar elde edilmiş ve firmanın kriterlerine en uygun tedarikçi belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca, firma ve sektöre yönelik çeşitli çıkarımlar ve önerilerde bulunulmuştur.

THE BEST SUPPLIER SELECTION BY USING ANALYTIC HIERARCHY PROCESS (AHP) AND FUZZY COMPREHENSIVE EVALUATION (FCE) METHODS: AN EXAMPLE OF A TURKISH LEATHER APPAREL COMPANY

Today's tough competitive conditions require managing companies’ supply chain management more effectively to protect the competitiveness in the field of leather apparel as in every sector. The selection of the most suitable suppliers for the company's expectations and criteria is an important decision problem in the management of this chain. In the scope of this study, a Turkish leather apparel company was selected and a field survey was carried out on leather supply by the participation of the purchasing managers of this company. Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Fuzzy Comprehensive Evaluation (FCE) methods were utilized for the analysis of the obtained data. Logical and consistent results were obtained and the most suitable supplier to the company criterion is determined by combining the advantages of both methods. Furthermore, some conclusions and recommendations for the company and the industry were manifested.
