Selection of the Best LNG Natural Gas Supplier with Multi-Criteria Decision-Making Techniques: Turkey Example in Current Conditions
Öz
Decision
of supplier selection has a crucial importance for a firm to succeed. Liquefied
Natural Gas (LNG) is a crucial alternative to ensure the safety of natural gas
supply in today's conditions, especially for the state of natural gas supply
security. LNG supplier selection constitutes the most important key point of
this process. This study aims to make the selection of the best LNG natural gas
supplier for Turkey using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Technique
for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) methods according
to the current conditions. For this purpose, expert opinions, activity reports
and literature reviews were made to determine main and sub criteria. AHP method
is applied by using Expert Choice Software and TOPSIS was analyzed with
Microsoft Excel for the best supplier choice. In addition, it has been shown
that which criteria brings which alternatives forward, which criteria are
decisive in the result and which are not decisive.
