Outline of Multicriteria Decision-making in Green Logistics

The multiple-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) methods are widely used in the field of logistics. However, the selection of a suitable MCDA method for a given decision situation raises a problem. This issue is a key stage in the decision-making and determines the quality of the whole decision making process. In the paper, the author develops a practical outline to select a subset of suitable MCDA methods for specific green logistics problems. For this purpose, a set of available MCDA methods was identified and analyzed. The abilities of each method contributed to the development of the practical outline. The proposed approach was verified with respect to selected literature cases related to green logistics decision problems.
