        the structure of organization of states is shaped by the purposes, necessities, needs and necessities of every era. With this aim, the main purpose of this research is to present a model of the challenges of fitting the structure of the government in implementing a comprehensive reform of the administrative system. This research in terms of collecting data is a descriptive-survey research,, and in terms of research purposes is an applied research. The statistical population of the research has been scientific and executive experts in the academic environment and governmental organizations. A researcher-made questionnaire was used to collect data, and to analysis the data multi-criteria decision-making approaches (MCDM) was used. In this research, by examining the literature of research and interviewing with experts, 66 indicators were identified and extracted. After judging the experts, using Fuzzy Delphi test, 29 indicators were approved and organized in 5 main components. The results of the Dematel test (studying the effectiveness and impact of variables) showed that the variables of privatization, decentralization and proportionalization, effectiveness variables, and the state structure and bureaucracy are impact variables. Interpretative structural modeling analysis also showed that variables were classified in two levels. At the highest level, the component of bureaucracy and at the lowest level are the components of government structure, adjustment, privatization and decentralization. Manuscript profile

        One of the difficult tasks in management is decision making. To accomplish all phases of decision makingprocess, all criteria must be measurable and quantitatively available. Because information technology, accordingto its intangible nature, has a broad range of definitions and generally undetermined indicators some of which arequalitative, there is no certain criterion to measure it. This paper aimed to consider all aspects of informationtechnology. Indicators of information technology have been set in four main groups and in each of them, themain criteria and related sub-criteria are defined. As qualitative and quantitative criteria cannot be measuredcertainly and accurately, the fuzzy systems (FS) are utilized to assess the magnitude of any indicator. To do so,after creating the matrix of decision-making, weights assessment techniques in multi-criteria-decision making(MCDM) have been used and then a model for measuring in order to gain points for a unique level ofinformation technology is provided. The method used to assess the weights is “grouping” that is one of thedecision-making techniques and the method of measurement is fuzzy simple addition weight (FSAW). Pointsearned, indicate the level of information technology in the organization. According to the implementation of themodel and examination by experts in this field, designed model was approved and is applicable in allorganizations that have IT units Manuscript profile

        In this article Topsis method in fuzzy phase was used to determine strategic priorities of research centers for resource allocation. First, the importance score of indices were determined through Study and interview with experts then according to defensive researches in the country and related centers which are considered as references indices were chosen. Next we determined to which centers, it is better, to assign the most budyet and facilities according to “TOPSIS” method and related and tables (they are described in the text) also we suggested the best choice. Through this process qualitative and quantitative indices can be used and consequently fuzzy method is sued to conver comprehensive and qualitative indices in to measurable quantitative and indices. This method of decision along with multiple qualitative indices can be used to determine the priority for allocating Rial and foreign currencies budjet to government research centers under the supervision of the ministry culture and advance education.

        Today, our country's economic firms face countless challenges in globalization. EFQM excellence is astrong tool to help organizations surmount these challenges. This model has two major parts: enablersand results. Enablers include five areas: leadership, people, policy and strategy, partnership andresources, and processes. Results include four areas: people, customer, society, and key performance.This model has been used in organization assessment by people who are responsible for our country’sindustries. However, this model has also been criticized. Assessment is done using an evidentialreasoning approach. The evidential reasoning approach is one of the MCDM techniques. Theimprovable areas must be recognized and divided into two classes: simple and important. Next, theimportant improvable areas must to be prioritized by one of the MADM techniques. To achieve morerapid excellence, the important improvable areas must be conducted by priority. According to theresearch findings, the sub-criteria and bolt points are not equal, in spite of the fact that they areconsidered equal in EFQM excellence. Manuscript profile

        Background and Objective: The unplanned expansion of cities is one of the most important issues of urban management in developing countries. Because the increasing development of urban society and unplanned constructions have created many changes in their spatial construction, which has led to the need for conscious guidance and design of suitable living space for cities. The purpose of this study is to find a set of suitable spatial zones for urban physical development. Method: Rasht city, as the center of Gilan County, has undergone many demographic and urban changes. In order to plan optimally and appropriately for the future urban development of the studied city, 14 ecological and socio-economic criteria were selected based on the opinions of experts and the Delphi method in 2018. Then the weighted linear composition method and network analysis process were used to zoning the ecological potential of the area for urban development. Findings: The results of the implementation of the multi-criteria evaluation method showed that the total area of the region is about 16.12% with very high capability. 29.54% of the region is unsuitable due to ecological conditions and unsustainable social tissue. Discussion and Conclusions: The results of this research can provide more study opportunities for planners and decision-makers to take preventive and controlling factors into strategic decisions.   Manuscript profile

        Background and Objective: Employed workers in wastewater treatment plants are always exposed to threats of risk factors in the workplace such as harmful physical, chemical and biological factors. Therefore, the present study assesses the safety, health and environmental risks in the wastewater treatment plant in west of Ahwaz city to investigate these risks and provide the necessary solutions. Material and Methodology: After the field visits, interviews to experts and staffs of treatment plant and internet researches (2018), a list of the most important risks was identified and given to the experts and staffs. In order to analyze and prioritize the risks, it was used from AHP and TOPSIS, which are multi-criteria decision-making methods (MCDM) and as well as the entropy technique to calculate the weight of the indicators. In Continuation to prioritizing strategies of factors, in order to removing the conflict between TOPSIS and AHP results, it was used the ranks mean.Findings: According to the results of AHP and TOPSIS, the most important safety and environmental risks that were identified, are impact to rotating parts of systems, entry of toxic materials and impermissible industrial wastewater and the dispersion of biogas from sludge digestion reservoirs. Also, according to the results of the ranks mean method, among the safety and health risks, it was Assigned impact to rotating parts of systems to score 1/5 the first priority, the electric shock and the dispersion of bad gas from wastewater to score of 3 and 3/5 were the second and third priority respectively. Among the environmental risks, it was Assigned entry of toxic materials and impermissible industrial waste water, the dispersion of biogas from sludge digestion reservoirs to score of 2 first priority, fire and explosion score of 3 second priority and fluctuations of waste wate discharge score of 3/5 the third priority.Disscotion & Conclusion: Given that the performance of wastewater treatment plants is a function of various human, natural, equipment and functional factors at the exploitation stage, therefore, management of these factors will help to improve the process of exploitation. In the present study, one of the most important management actions to reduce the level of risks identified, can pointed to apply of work safety guidelines, establishing of facilities and necessary equipment to burn additional gases and prevent their dangerous accumulation in the treatment plant environment, perform pre- treatment of industrial wastewater and continuous monitoring of effluent wastes to match with environmental standards.  Manuscript profile

        Selection of the investment strategy is a bothersome and sophisticated process because of taking into consideration a large number of quantitative and qualitative parameters like benefits, opportunities, costs, and risks. However, the parameters may have a significant influence on each other. A decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) can be used to construct a network relationship map. On the other hand, according to the information is incomplete, uncertainty is an inseparable part of making decision in solving the MCDM problems. Therefore, this paper proposes a new hybrid model based on analytic hierarchical process (AHP), DEMATEL, and Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) techniques under fuzzy environment to evaluate the problem of the selection of the investment strategy. For achieving the aim, a three-step process is presented to formulate the problem under consideration. First, the structure of the investment problem is broken into a simple hierarchy structure by using the AHP method to simply model the problem and calculate the importance weights of criteria by using a pairwise comparison process. Second, the interdependent relationships are identified by applying the DEMATEL technique. This technique is employed for computing the global weights of benefit, opportunities, cost, and risk (BOCR) factors. Finally, the fuzzy TOPSIS methodology is used for prioritizing the alternatives. To show the effectiveness of the proposed model, a case study is investigated. The results demonstrate that the proposed model is capable of prioritizing the investment strategies. Manuscript profile

        In spite of human knowledge and technology development, unfortunately, the situation of the environment at national, regional and international levels is critical and complex. We can no longer expect that with economic and industrial development the environment remains intact, but the reduction of pollution and its harmful effects using high technology can ensure the health, growth and excellence of present and future life on Earth. Multi-criteria decision-making System (MCDM) has been used to improve decision-making and management process. The spatial information systems are suitable for spatial data analysis. Also, Geographic information systems have been used to properly determine suitable areas for industrial and mining activities and its impacts assessment on the environment. In this study, using ecological, economic and social criteria and their integration with MCDM and GIS, the study area based on its sensitivity to mining activities were mapped. Also Environmental considerations consists of impact of mining activities on the urban settlements, rural settlements, surface water, groundwater, wildlife habitat, agriculture, tourism and vegetation were analyzed. Based on zoning map of the sensitivity of the active area of ​​the mineral gypsum, range, interference within the mining and production zones were identified. The results showed that 15% of the mineral sector with a range of prohibited activities, 6% in the zone of extreme sensitivity, 11% in the zone of high sensitivity, and 58% moderate and 10% is located in the zone of low sensitivity. Which implies the fact that 26 of the total 52 mining operations across the range of prohibited activities that should be stopped. It has been elaborated that the priority for planning must be related to the management of this moderate sensitive zone. The survey also shown that two criteria consists of the agriculture area and surface water had the most interaction with the unsafe mineral activities.   Manuscript profile

        Identifying and locating suitable areas for eco-tourism development, is one of the important issues of tourism planners. But the wide variety of options and parameters, variables uncertainty and long terms in environmental planning, causes the          decision-making becomes more complex. So multi-criteria decision-making methods can meet these challenges. Thus the aim of this study is to identify suitable areas for         eco-tourism in Kiamaky wildlife refuge using MCDM method Based on fuzzy logic in GIS. According to the effective criteria on the eco-tourism in this area; obtained from previous research and expert opinions, 15 criteria maps (climate, lithology, height from sea level, slope, aspect, land use and distance maps from residential area, road, river, police station, environmental guard station, sensitive habitats, shrine, spring and waterfall) are produced and classified as input. To determine the weights of criteria, opinions of experts in the form of Delphi Method were applied. The criteria matrix formed and the relative importance of all criteria was defined using the AHP method and pairwise comparison. Finally eco-tourism appropriate priority map was produced using Weighted Linear Combination (WLC) method and applying the index of the importance of each criterion to corresponding classified map. According to mentioned map, 15% and 34% of the area eligible for perfect and good for eco-tourism respectively, and 4% of the area are medium for this purpose. In this study, besides confirming previous studies, power and usefulness of GIS in locating and combining different ecological criteria were shown. Manuscript profile

        Accurate decision making for selecting contractors in order to manage a project is one of the most important factors of success and enhancing productivity of a project. So, extracting a practical model from the set of factors affecting the selection of contractors can play an important role in improving the project performance, therefore, providing the proposed model is the main objective of this fundamental-applied research. The approach of this research is the integration of the qualitative and quantitative research and the statistical community are the experts of project management. At first, the model structure has been explained by analysis of data collected from the fundamental data theory approach. In the next step to test the conceptual model of research and hypothesis, the method of confirmatory factor analysis and structural equations based on variance was used using partial least squares method and data processing was performed using SMART PLS software. In the last step, to improve and applicability of the model, fuzzy analytic hierarchy technique, the weight of the criteria has been measured and prioritized .Finally, using fuzzy TOPSIS technique, an applied sample of contractor selection has been implemented. The results show that for the efficient selection of a contractor, by using a proposed model based on the determined coefficients and prioritize the sub-criteria of behavioral and technical capability, the company's capabilities and outsourcing goals, the achieving of optimal decision-making conditions is possible.

        The public-private partnership means providing financial resources to the private sector to assist the government in carrying out large-scale infrastructure projects. Usually, participatory projects of urban management that need high investment and have a great complexity in terms of technology and design are considered as participatory macro projects. So the performance evaluation of this kind of projects according to their regional influence is necessary. This study identifies and ranks the performance evaluation criteria of participatory urban management projects to use these criteria for creating a comprehensive approach for performance evaluation. The performance evaluation criteria are obtained for two major projects of Tehran urban management namely neighborhood house and cultural-sports complex by questionnaire with Cronbach’s Alpha = 0.97% coefficient. Then, these criteria are grouped based on the aspects of the Balanced Scorecard including financial, clients, internal processes and learning and growth. Then, using the fuzzy analysis network process, the network structure was designed to display and measure the weight of relationships between criteria and sub-criteria. Finally, two projects are evaluated and ranked by TOPSIS and VIKOR and SAW methods. In the financial, clients, internal processes aspects, neighborhood house project showed a better performance than cultural-sport complex, but in the growth and learning aspect, the result for two projects was almost identical.

        In recent decades, the selection of suitable suppliers as one of the important issues in the field of supply chain management is considered. The evaluation and selection of the best suppliers need to make decisions based on different criteria. In this study, a hybrid MCDM approach consists of AHP and VIKOR methods has been proposed that at first paid to identify the most important criteria in the supplier selection based on previous studies and interviews with company executives. Then by using questionnaires, the paired comparisons of criteria and paired comparisons matrix of groups according to the views of managers and based on Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is performed. Next, using a multi-criteria optimization technique (VIKOR), firm's suppliers are ranked. Furthermore, a case study in the automotive industry is applied to accumulate data for proposed framework. Finally, by identifying effective criteria, appropriate suppliers, and similarity of obtained results with other studies, the efficiency of the proposed model is proved. Manuscript profile

        In the recent years, using information technology in Iran industries, mostly in banking, has been increased. Selecting the best site location for Automated Teller Machines (ATM) is also an important Subject for the banking industry. Site locating Sciences have always been searching for new optimization methods to find the best location of their case studies. Using Multi-Criteria Decision-Making methods can be expected that the candidate places satisfy the criteria by their weight ratio. Also, the use of fuzzy logic in decision making has been solved the problem of uncertainty and imprecision in assigning the weight of the criteria. So, the applied research study has been using a combined approach of MCDM in a fuzzy environment to provide a new method in Gharzolhasane Mehr Iran Bank ATMs site locating. Regarding the high costs of locating ATMs, the purpose of this study is to provide a method for selecting the best range of these devices Location to increase efficiency and services. Based on the similar studies, a decision criterion was extracted and weighted with FPM Procedure by using QMB and Banking industry expert’s opinions. Then the Location candidates points were ranked by Fuzzy Graph theory and matrix approach method. Manuscript profile

        The supply chain has recently attracted the attention of many researchers. The purpose of this paper is to identify Suppliers that have the highest potential capacity to meet the needs companies, with reasonable cost and also reduce the risk and maximize the total value of purchaser. Since suppliers are different in terms of products strengths and weaknesses and general conditions, requires a careful evaluation by the purchaser. In order to do this activity in the Companies, there are many problems; one of those problems is to determine the appropriate criteria for assessing supplier. This is because often need to be expressed in the form of qualitative concepts, while they must be evaluated quantitatively. In addition, in terms of decision makers, importance and priorities of each criterion are different, and this is one of the main reasons that authors are seeking to present a model to select suppliers based on appropriate criteria with emphasis on the importance degree of them in the decision-making process. So at first with reviewing the literature, criteria influencing the choice of suppliers were identified, then using a questionnaire that was completed by a Team of experts to screening criteria was discussed. The qualitative and quantitative data were collected and the importance of effective criteria in supplier selection determined by AHP method and finally suppliers of this company ranked using Grey COPRAS method. The most important criteria for evaluation supplier were assets and infrastructure (0.275) and Behran supplier was identified as the best supplier. Manuscript profile

        Destruction of area and changes in local ecosystem are viewed as the most important environmental impacts of mining operations in a region. Extents of disturbance area particularly waste dumps are also being increased as mining continues. Hence, environmental management and reclamation of mined lands play a major role in environmental protection in a specified mining region. With this respect, this paper describes optimum plant selection for reclamation process of mining in Chadormaloo mining complex as a case study. In all type of post mining land use such as Agriculture, Pasture, Forestry, Tourist attraction, Wild life creation, selection and planting the appropriate plant species is one the most essential requirements to successful implement the mine reclamation plan. The Research methodology is, Selecting of plant species that is on the basis of the primary factors that are: type of post mining land use, Climate, Nature­ of soil. Then priority is defined between the selected species, based on of the secondary factors by two Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) models that criteria are perspective of the region, resistance against disease and insects,­ strength and method of growth, availability of plant type, economic efficiency, protection of soil and storing water, prevention from pollution. These models are implemented by FUZZY AHP and FUZZY TOPSIS methods. The mentioned procedure was applied to Chadormaloo iron mine in Iran. Decision making was executed on the basis of oral judgments and experts’ opinions in the case study. Results showed that among candidate plants, Artemisia sieberi, Salsola yazdiana, Halophytes types, and Zygophyllum, respectively, are ranked and prioritized as optimum plants for reclamation process using two methods.

        In today’s modern organizations, group decision making is inevitable, and it is in wide use for facilitating participation of managers and personnel. Meanwhile we can’t easily ignore the role of conflict between decision makers. This conflict overshadows key elements of decision. In fuzzy group multi criteria decision making, it is possible to see conflict in each criteria. So it will be a new Approach in multi criteria decision makings. Conflicts Classifying and facing each level in every criterion makes the base of method which is proposed in this research. Typically, this Approach  in the environment would be no crisp, and will need to use reasoning which controls fuzzy environment. This classifying is able to help decision makers in their committee to screen criteria and alternatives on one hand and Third-party intervention on the other hand.

        Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) is a critical issue in management of organizations, and IT outsourcing is an advanced type of outsourcing. An Organization that decides to outsource part of its activities will initially raise the question of what activities to outsource. However, given the absence of a solid scientific and systematic framework and processes for strategic decision-making of outsourcing services, organizations face diverse problems. The Purpose of this article was to utilize Decision tools with multiple criteria in order to identify and rank the indicators that may affect the business process outsourcing. Also, we used the techniques of Analytic Hierarchical Process in order to calculate the weight of these factors and options raised in the business process outsourcing. Also the magnitude of relationships between the indicators of outsourcing (IT) was examined using DEMATEL technique. Manuscript profile

        Tax fraud essentially entails cheating on a tax return in an attempt to avoid paying the entire tax obligation. Tax fraud is one of the most important issues in each economic system which can be difficultly analyzed. The aim of this research paper is to identify the causal relationships and prioritize the main effective factors in tax fraud in Iran. In this paper, we use Decision Making Trial and Evaluation (DEMATEL) technique together with Group Analytic Network Process (ANP) method in fuzzy environment. Also, we propose an experimental example to show that the fuzzy Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) model can measure and evaluate the tax fraud issue in real world problems. The findings and results can be presented to the decision makers to select the best solution in order to prevent and confront the tax fraud problem. Finally, five principal factors and twenty secondary factors in tax fraud problem are identified and analyzed by the proposed model and interviewing with experts. Manuscript profile

        The present study focused on feasibility assessment of establishing solar panels sites within the East Azerbaijan. The research’s methodology was established based on GIS spatial decision making systems. It should be mentioned that decreasing nonrenewable sources' process has been considered as one of the serious challenges. Thus, using solar energy is a solution to deal with this challenge. The high topoclimatic and physical properties of the East Azerbaijan tends to establish solar panels for producing electricity. In order to evaluate the possibility of establishing solar systems, within this research we aim to apply GIS-multi criteria decision making models for integrating the data and selecting to potential sites for solar panels. To achieve this, the prior options from different options of analyses network model (ANP) was applied for analyzing the criteria. As part of methodology, the Landsat satellite was used for extracting land use/cover. The SRTM dataset also employed for exploring the elevation, slope, aspect and solar shining. The climate dataset were used for monitoring climatological parameters such as raining, temperature, humidity, number of dusty days, number of cloudy days and sunny hours within the period of 1986 to 2014. Finally the solar panel suitability maps achieved by compounding the informative layers and multiplying those criteria were accessed from executing the model. The results indicated that 48.61% of the study area has very high suitability for solar panels programs. While the northern parts of East Azerbaijan province includes very low potentiality for producing solar based energy. Manuscript profile

        تغذیه  هم به­عنوان ورودی و هم نتیجه توسعه پایدار شناخته می­شود،  جایی که تولید کشاورزی نیز نقش غیرقابل انکاری ایفا می­کند. استان البرز به عنوان یکی از استان‌های بزرگ ایران، با مشکلات متعددی مواجه می­باشد که طی سال‌های گذشته بر امنیت غذایی آن تأثیر منفی گذاشته است،.به­طوری که اجرای کشاورزی حساس به تغذیه برای رفع این مشکلات ضروری تلقی می­شود. پژوهش حاضر به بررسی مداخلات مؤثر بر اجرای تولید محصولات کشاورزی حساس به تغذیه در استان البرز بر اساس تحلیل تصمیم‌گیری چندمعیاره (MCDM) برای اولویت‌بندی این مداخلات و همچنین شناسایی بهترین استراتژی اجرایی برای پیگیری در منطقه پرداخته است. به منظور دستیابی به این اهداف، با استفاده از فرآیند شبکه تحلیلی (ANP)بر اساس مطالعات کتابخانه­ای و اسنادی و مصاحبه با کارشناسان و مراجع، ساختار مدل ANP تدوین شده و مقایسه­های زوجی صورت گرفته است. نتایج نشان می‌دهد که مهم‌ترین عامل مداخله گر، در ابتدا "تولید درآمد برای تغذیه" و پس از آن "جابجایی، ذخیره‌سازی و فرآوری حساس به تغذیه پس از برداشت" ، می­باشد. تصمیم­گیران و مسئولان این استان، باید در اجرای کشاورزی حساس به تغذیه، به این جنبه­ها توجه بیشتری داشته باشند. همچنین، استراتژی پیاده­سازی بلندمدت (6 تا 20 سال) جایگزین بهتری برای هدف­گذاری و برنامه­ریزی تصمیم­گیران و مقامات است.

        In severe market conditions, innovation is the creation, development, andimplementation of new ideas or improvement in current products, processes, andstrategies, consequently leading to successful trading and market leadership,providing values for beneficiaries, bringing economic growth, and improving theliving standards. An innovation ecosystem is described as a physical environmentthat refers to a network or cluster of entrepreneurs, inventors, enterprises,universities, research laboratories, governmental agencies, and other institutions andresources aiming at achieving a new process or product development. Therefore, thisresearch mainly aims to identify and prioritize the factors affecting the success of theinnovation ecosystem in enhancing small businesses. In this research, afteridentifying the effective factors using library study and interviews with managers atscience and technology parks, a Delphi survey was applied to recognize main factorsfor the statistical population, including companies located in Tehran, Pardis, andQom Science and Technology Parks. Then, the AHP questionnaire was used toprioritize the factors. The results can be helpful to innovation ecosystems to find andapply their critical success factors, foster small businesses and startups, and survivein the competition ground. Manuscript profile

        Economic development requires investment in various sectors of the economy. The agricultural sector has a major share of Iran's GDP, employment and food security. The main objectives of this study are to identify and prioritize investment potentials in the agricultural sector of Mazandaran province using multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) models. For this purpose, 8 investment options of the province, including: pressurized irrigation, construction of gardens and pastures, electrification of wells, poultry farming, watershed management, conversion industries, fisheries and greenhouses were selected. Increasing production capacity was compared and prioritized. The results showed that in the criterion of the return on investment period and the rate of return on capital, activities that do not require group work and have fewer employees are a priority. Also, according to the final calculations, the processing industry has the first priority in the investment of the province's agricultural sector, and watershed management, construction of gardens and pastures, poultry farming, pressurized irrigation, fisheries and aquaculture, electrification of wells and finally greenhouses in the second to eighth priority were placed.Based on the research results, it was suggested that facilitating the inflow of funds into the agricultural sector and the impact of government fiscal policies on private sector activities should be considered by policy makers and the policy of reform and development of the financial sector should be a priority in the country.

        The moral investment movement that began in the 1960s in the United States has recently led to a massive move around the world. Growing cases of corporate scams and scandals have pushed investors to consider the quality of corporate governance and the ethics of their behavior. Also, investors are becoming aware of the desirability of moral aberration of assets.The growing influence of institutional investors has strengthened this awareness. Hence, in order to research in this field, there should be an understanding of the progress made in constructing models that are consistent with financially ethical considerations. We use multiple methodologies to achieve this goal. To obtain the ethical performance scores of each asset, based on the investor's preferences, a hierarchical process approach has been used. A multi-faceted decision-making method is used to obtain the rating of each asset based on the investor's rate on the financial benchmark. Model of portfolio optimization is available to obtain diverse, reliable, and well-matched portfolio portfolios. The purpose of this model is to maximize the financial purpose as the primary purpose and maximize the ethical goal adopted by the investor. Manuscript profile

        Survival and life of an organization depend on correct decisions when facing opportunities and threats in the external environment of the organization. Since no organization can have infinite resources, strategists must decide on which strategy among various ones can lead to maximum profit. SWOT analysis enables managers to discover and identify internal and external factors affecting strategies of the organization. Therefore, the above-mentioned analysis is an appropriate tool to formulate strategies; however, it does not have the capability to evaluate the dependency of identified factors. In this study, a Fuzzy-ANP model is used to support SWOT process. This model considers not only the internal dependency of factors but also the ambiguity that appears in the opinions of decision makers by the application of the model in the fuzzy environment; although that the current techniques such as AHP consider factors independently. The network model presented here to analyze SWOT consists of four levels: the goal (best strategy) is in the first level; SWOT criteria, 4 main criteria and 24 sub-criteria are in the second and third level respectively; and finally alternatives (4 strategy). To calculate weights of SWOT factors, based on ANP method, a questionnaire in the form of paired comparison is designed and then given to the experts of the company studied. Afterwards, the geometric mean is applied, and finally based on ANP model, SO strategy with maximum weight is selected for the company. Manuscript profile

        One of the essential issues existing in the industry section and long term investments is the procedure of evaluation and selection of industrial projects. Since selection of the optimum and appropriate project, is followed by economic efficiency and conversely the failure of a project causes time and cost wastage and will be followed by huge adverse consequences. Hence, decision making in this field is complicated and various tangible, intangible, qualitative and quantitative factors are involved in it and for this reason identification, study and analysis of them is necessary. In order to evaluate the projects in this article, initially technical and financial studies are considered and analyzed and its results are posed. Technical studies include estimation of investment constant costs, estimation of the plan income, costs before usage, capital turnover and production charges and financial studies include estimation of net current value indices, internal output rate, profitability index, capital return period, break – even analysis and other factors which contribute to economic evaluation of the project. The case study in this research is construction of a tile factory which five plans which in fact involve the research options are considered with indices and various technical and economic factors which through Fuzzy Hierarchical Analysis Technique which is Fuzzy Multivariate Decision Making Methods, have been compared so that the best option is selected and the projects are ranked. The ‌considered indices involve four financial indices including net current value, capital return period, investment output, sales output and the ratio of numerical break – even. The research result indicates that the projects ranking results is very close to the ranking on the basis of internal output rate. Manuscript profile
