摘要
With the emergence of networked organization, the information sharing capability of potential supply chain partners obtains more attention from academicians and industry personnel. Evaluation of information sharing capability is important since information sharing is necessary to horizontally integrate geographically dispersed operations. However the evaluation of information sharing capability is not easy task. (1) It involves an evaluation of multiple attributes, and moreover qualitative attributes are often accompanied by certain ambiguities and vagueness. (2) It is typical multicriteria decision-making problem. As a widely used approach, the significant limitation of Analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is the assumption of independency among various criteria. In order to model the vagueness in the preferences and the improper assumption of independency among various criteria, a fuzzy Analytic network process (ANP) approach was proposed in this article. The method adopted uses triangular fuzzy numbers for pair-wise comparison and applies extent analysis to determine the weights for various attributes. An illustrative example is used to explore the application of the fuzzy ANP methodology to this problem.
