Abstract:   (194 Views)
This study focuses on optimizing vendor selection in laser cutting services through a comprehensive evaluation framework integrating the Vendor Performance Indicator (VPI) and the Fuzzy Analytical Network Process (F-ANP). The methodology quantifies vendor performance across five key criteria: quality, cost, delivery, flexibility, and responsiveness. The results indicate that product quality (39.7%) and cost efficiency (41.4%) are the most influential factors in vendor selection. Sensitivity analysis reveals that a 10% increase in quality consistency improves overall vendor ranking stability by 15%, while cost variations above 8% significantly affect final rankings. The study recommends implementing performance-based contracts, quality assurance protocols, and digital supply chain solutions to enhance vendor assessments. Collaborative partnerships with top-performing vendors can yield mutual benefits and foster sustainable practices, aligning with the company's resilience and operational excellence objectives.
