碩士 === 國立臺北科技大學 === 工業工程與管理系碩士班 === 101 === Evaluation of appropriate suppliers in supply chain management strategy is a challenging issue because evaluating criteria are characterized with complexity, elusiveness, and uncertainty in nature. Effective and accurate supplier evaluation decisions are important for productions and logistics management in many firms to enhance their organizational performance. The purpose of this study is to provide a comprehensive key component supplier evaluation model. This model of criteria is based on a review of 40 related journals and experts review. In this research, we use a leading electronic company, X, as a case study. Fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) is applied to calculate the weighting of selection criteria for key component supplier evaluation. A designed FAHP questionnaire was sent to twelve procurement decision makes in Company X. The model can be used as a checklist in order to ensure that no key components are missing in the evaluation process. Finally, score cards filled by two managers are used to verify applicability of the model in the real world.
