Minimizing OHS Risks with Spherical Fuzzy Sets as a Verdict to Inventory Management: A Case Regarding Energy Companies by Burcu Yılmaz Kaya

“…Three different actors participated as decision makers (DMs) by the employment of SFS-SAW group decision making approach, where computed categories and delineated research outcomes were scrutinized in details by benchmarking of the results in terms of varying DM assessments and supplier company driven inventoried item groups, where sensitivity analysis on overall results were also performed. 103 out of 270 items of a protoset were analyzed, a subset of 51 items listed in Category I was determined to be used in further analysis. Illustrative explanations of diversification of criteria weighting scores regarding different parties in the decision making process were also presented with several schematic representations of research outcomes in the light of multidimensional benchmarking debates.…”
