EVALUATING AND SELECTING SUSTAINABLE SUPPLIERS BASED ON FUZZY-VIKOR METHOD: CASE STUDY FOR SOCAL CO., LTD

Abstract

This study aims to provide a solution to evaluate and select a sustainable supplier based on the Fuzzy - VIKOR method in an automobile company in Vietnam. By using an integrated Fuzzy - VIKOR method, we find that the "Quality of product", "Price of product", and "Environmental Management System" are the top three criteria in the criteria for evaluating sustainable suppliers that are prioritized by the members of the expert’s opinions. This study contributes to limited current research on supplier evaluation and selection in Vietnam. Besides that, the proposed integrated approach gives more insight to decision-makers in the company.
