Abstract


The aim of this study is applying a new integrated method for supplier selection. In this paper, the weights of each criterion are calculated using of Shannon’s Entropy. After that, PROMETHEE is utilized to rank the alternatives. Then we select the best supplier based on these results. The outcome of this research is ranking and selecting supplier with the help of Shannon’s Entropy and PROMETHEE techniques. This paper offers a new integrated method for supplier selection.
