        In the process of investment decision making, next to financial indicators many other aspects of investment projects are increasingly often considered. This leads to the multi-criteria evaluation of a project. The advantage of multi-criteria methods is the ability to take into account all (not only financial) aspects of the attractiveness of an investment project. The selection of criteria of project assessment must take into account the specificity of organization that makes a decision. Along with traditional method this paper introduces new approach for risk assessment based on each criterion characterizing the investment project on hydrocarbon resources exploitation.

        This paper processes a combined method, based on VIKOR and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to select the units with most efficiency. We utilize the VIKOR as compromise solution method. This research is a two-stage model designed to fully rank the alternatives, where each alternative has multiple inputs and outputs. The problem involves BELIEF parameters in the solution procedure. First, the alternative evaluation problem is formulated by Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and in the second stage; we use the opinion of experts with belief parameter to be applied into a model of group Decision-Making (DM) called the aggregated fuzzy belief decision matrix. . In this method weight of efficiency witch obtained from VIKOR is multiply with weight of CCR model of data envelopment analysis. Finally, to illustrate the proposed method, an illustrative example is provided. Manuscript profile

        One of the most important activities in the management of input items of a company is focusing on the process of purchasing, supplier selection and allocating order to suppliers. Decisions about supplier selection due to simultaneously taking inconsistent and diverse issues into account in a wide range of strategic to operational factors, and from quantitative to qualitative criteria will be complex by nature. In order to select the best suppliers it is necessary to make a trade-off between these tangible and intangible factors some of which may conflict. When business volume discounts exist, this problem becomes more complicated. In this paper a multi-objective model for order allocation under volume discount conditions is presented. In this context, suppliers offer price discounts on total business volume. A solution methodology is presented to solve the multi-objective model, and the model is illustrated using a numerical example. Studying various combinations of constraints such as capacity, timely delivery, disadvantages and cost, taking into account quantity discounts, considering the weight of the suppliers in order allocation and integration of these cases with each other, have made the current research quite unique.
