Abstract

This paper shows how fuzzy repertory table technique (Castro et al., 2001) can be used as a simple decision support system for helping to a manager of a company when he is faced with a choice in which the options are clear (for instance, the choice of a suppliers from among all existing suppliers, or the choice of sell one product from among all existing posiblities). The manager must analyse each option making use of his knowledge, with the aim to highlight its characteristic qualities which are admirable in themselves or useful for our purpose and also its defective qualities. Next, the manager choices the more advantageous opcion according to this information. When the possible options are clear, the analysis implies make comparisons among the several options. Thus, the manager find out the characteristic and defective qualities associated to each option. With the suggested method in this paper, we identity the relevant information (characteristic and defective) associated to each option and recommend one option according to this information.
