Abstract

This article describes the main challenges and opportunities that the agricultural field has in reaching a high level of performance and decision making. These improvement opportunities have been approached by means of the need of development of an optimum way of organizing an institution in this field, based on the feedback expressed by the main chains of hypermarkets and supermarkets from Romania and on the existence of regulation, according to which, 51% of the total surface for selling certain categories of food products should be done using a supplier chain composed by local producers. In this sense, by applying the multicriteria decision-making methods, an Analytic Hierarchy Process multicriterial hybrid model was defined and evaluated by the experts in the field, which started from the objective of defining in an optimum way such an institution, known as “Regional Agricultural Center”, and which should fulfill a series of necessary functions, in order to harmoniously develop the relationships between the stakeholders (farmers, local producers, hypermarkets and supermarkets, citizens, etc.). The paper also presents an innovative approach for the implementation of a sustainable management system, by introducing the KAIZEN™ management continuous improvement methods and techniques.
