Abstract
Today due to the globalization and competitive conditions of the market, decisions are generally made in group and in accordance with different attributes. In addition, all of the information is associated with uncertainty. In such situation, the emergence of inconsistency and facing with the contradictions will be obvious. Having regarded this fact, the development and application of tools that adequately address the uncertainty in decision making process and also be appropriate for group decision making is an important area of multi-criteria decision making (MCDM). Therefore, in this paper, firstly we developed the traditional best-worst method (BWM) and proposed an interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy best-worst method (IVIFBWM), then introduced a novel approach for fuzzy multi-attribute group decision making based on the proposed method. Finally, in order to demonstrate how the introduced approach can be applied in practice, it is implemented in an Iranian investment company and the experimental results are examined. From the experimental results, we can extract that not only the introduced approach is simple in calculation but also it is convenient in implementation especially in interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy environments.

Abstract
Today, one of the most important concerns of production units is the evaluation, analysis and risk management in the production process. In this research, based on the fuzzy control approach, a scientific and logical method for evaluating, analyzing and managing risk in the production process is presented. Based on the proposed method of this research, after identifying the risks in the production process of products, according to the three criteria of failure severity, probability of failure and detectability, as well as using the best - worst method, evaluation and determining the importance of these risks, is done. Then, with the fuzzy rules, fuzzy inference system is designed. The final result is the classification and prioritization of identified risks. Finally, the proposed research model for an applied sample is used and its final results are analyzed.

Abstract
The selection of a sustainable supplier is a multi-criteria decision-making issue that covers a range of criteria (quantitative-qualitative). Selecting the most eco-friendly suppliers requires balancing tangible and intangible elements that may be out of sync. The problem gets more complicated when volume discounts are taken into account, as the buyer needs to decide between two issues: 1) What are the best sustainable suppliers? 2) Which amount needs to be bought from each of the selected eco-friendly suppliers? In current study a combined attitude of best-worst method (BWM) ameliorated via multi-objective mixed integer programming (MOMIP) and rough sets theory is developed. The aim of this work is to contemporaneously ascertain the order quantity allocated to these suppliers in the case of multiple sourcing, multiple products with multiple criteria and with capacity constraints of suppliers and the number of suppliers to employ. In this situation, price reductions are offered by suppliers based on add up commerce volume, not on the amount or assortment of items acquired from them. Finally, a solution approach is proposed to solve the multi-objective model, and the model is demonstrated using a case study in Iran Khodro Company (IKCO). The results indicate that ISACO is the most sustainable supplier and the most orders are assigned to this supplier.
