A Hybrid Fuzzy Decision-making Method for the Supplier Selection Problem Based on the Digitalization, Agility, and Sustainability Dimensions for the Energy Industry

In today's competitive business environment, the crucial role of supply chain management is undeniable. In this field, one of the critically important branches is the supplier selection problem which plays a key role in improving the efficiency of the companies. In this study, due to the importance of the mentioned points, a hybrid fuzzy decision-making method is proposed to investigate the supplier selection problem with three important and crucial dimensions namely digitalization, agility, and sustainability. To do this, at the outset, the main aspects and indicators of the research problem are determined based on the literature and experts. Then, the Fuzzy Best-Worst Method (FBWM) is used to calculate the weight of indicators. In the next step, the suppliers are ranked by applying the Fuzzy Vise Kriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje (FVIKOR) method. Finally, the validity and robustness of the applied approaches have been checked by comparing them with other methods.
