Envanter Yönetimi Açısından Ürün Seçiminde AHP-TOPSIS ve AHP-VIKOR Yöntemlerinin Karşılaştırılması

Firmalar, olağanüstü rekabetin yaşandığı günümüz pazar koşullarında maliyetleri en aza indirgeyen ve kârları en üst düzeye çıkaran etkili envanter politikaları geliştirmeli ve uygulamalıdır. Envanterler, imalat işletmelerinin toplam varlıklarında önemli bir yere sahiptir. Bu önemli kalem için etkin envanter yönetimi politikalarının uygulanması, firmanın geleceği için çok önemlidir. Firmalar, önem seviyelerine göre sınıflandırdıkları envanteri kontrol ederek müşteri ihtiyaçlarını daha etkin bir şekilde karşılayabilirler. Bu bakış açısından yararlanılarak hazırlanan bu çalışmada, envanter yönetimi açısından en önemli ürünü belirlemek için çok kriterli karar verme yöntemlerini uygulayan bir uygulama sunulmuştur. Belirlenmiş kriterlere göre en önemli ürünü belirleme sürecinde kriterlerin ağırlıklarının hesaplanması için literatürde sıkça kullanılan AHP yöntemi uygulanmıştır. Bu ağırlıklar TOPSIS ve VIKOR yöntemlerinde girdi olarak kullanılmış ve alternatifler sıralanmıştır.

Comparison of AHP-TOPSIS and AHP-VIKOR Methods in Product Selection in terms of Inventory Management

Firms must develop and implement effective inventory policies that minimize costs and maximize profits in today's market conditions where extraordinary competition is experienced. Inventory has an important place in the total assets of manufacturing enterprises. Implementation of effective inventory management policies for this important item is crucial for the future of firms. Firms can meet customer needs more effectively by controlling fewer inventories that they classify according to their importance level. In this study, which is prepared by taking advantage of this point of view, application is presented that applies multi-criteria decision-making methods to determine the most important product in terms of inventory management. In the process of determining the product in the most important according to criteria determined, AHP method which is frequently used in the literature is applied for calculation weights of criteria. These weights are used in TOPSIS and VIKOR methods and results of these two methods are compared.
