Supplier Selection of Medical Consumption Products with a Probabilistic Linguistic MABAC Method

Abstract

In order to obtain an optimal medical consumption product supplier, the integration of combined weights and multi-attributive border approximation area comparison (MABAC) under probabilistic linguistic sets (PLTSs) has offered a novel integrated model in which the CRiteria Importance Through Intercriteria Correlation (CRITIC) method is employed for calculating the objective weights of various attributes and the MABAC method with PLTSs is used to acquire the final ranking result of a medical consumption product supplier. Additionally, so as to indicate the applicability of the devised method, this model is confirmed by a numerical case for the supplier selection of medical consumption products. Some comparative studies are made with some existing methods. The proposed method can also successfully select suitable alternatives in other selection problems.
