Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) Based Performance Assessment of Textile Industry in Tirupur

Abstract: This study explores the use of Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) to evaluate and prioritize criteria in supply chain management within the textile industry of Tirupur district. Utilizing a detailed questionnaire reviewed by experts with over 30 years of industry experience, the study conducted pairwise comparisons of key criteria: cost (C1), quality (C2), time delivery (C3), and management and organization (C4). By applying FAHP, which effectively handles uncertainties in decision-making, the study determines the relative importance of these criteria. The findings provide a structured method for improving decisionmaking in textile supply chain operations, integrating fuzzy logic with the traditional AHP framework to enhance the management and optimization of supply chain processes.
