Abstract

In this paper, a new methodology for prioritizing strategies using an integrated approach of fuzzy Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) is proposed. A case study in an aircraft maintenance unit showed that the “Financial†criterion and the sub-criterion of “Competitiveness and Improving Customer Satisfaction†(with weights of 0.3108 and 0.84, respectively) were the most critical ones. Due to the internal relations between the criteria and sub-criteria in the fuzzy MCDM and the opinions of the experts of the aircraft maintenance unit, the weights of the main criteria obtained were closer to the actual conditions.
