چکیده

Developing a tool to predict the best project according to approved criteria is essential for the success of a project. Traditional assessment models often fall short in capturing the interdependencies among multiple variables. This study fills that gap by offering a predictive model-based framework throw create a simplified and practical interactive model for multi-criteria decision-making. The following steps were taken to overcome the above problems: ۱) ۳۳ factors were extracted from open sources and interviews with decision makers. ۲) ۱۶ factors achieved a relative importance higher than ۸۰%. ۳) Only eight factors were chosen from the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to determine weights and relationships having t-values for regression weights were smaller than ۱.۹۶, and the R-square was more significant than ۰.۰۵, and ۴) a mathematical model was built based on the most influential factors, regardless of the lowest bid. To verify the validity of the developed model, the case study was applied to three alternatives (public sector projects under implementation). Four main criteria were consistent with the study's hypothesis, while the POLI criteria were excluded as a major determinant because it had a regression weight greater than ۱.۹۶. The results showed the third alternative, was not the best choice, however, the second project is considered the best among them with (medium) degree, while the first and third projects obtained a (weak) degree with a result of  ۶۰.۴۴%, ۴۸.۰۱%, and ۴۲.۸۴%, respectively, with goodness of PLS modelwith an R-square of ۰.۹۴۳.

COI مخفف عبارت CIVILICA Object Identifier به معنی شناسه سیویلیکا برای اسناد است. COI کدی است که مطابق محل انتشار، به مقالات کنفرانسها و ژورنالهای داخل کشور به هنگام نمایه سازی بر روی پایگاه استنادی سیویلیکا اختصاص می یابد.

کد COI به مفهوم کد ملی اسناد نمایه شده در سیویلیکا است و کدی یکتا و ثابت است و به همین دلیل همواره قابلیت استناد و پیگیری دارد.
