Decision Support System of Sustainable Supplier Selection for Micro Small Medium Enterprise in Apparel Industry

In contemporary society, individuals are increasingly exhibiting heightened awareness and concern on matters pertaining to social and environmental dimensions. Businesses of various scales, encompassing micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), are expected to adhere to rigorous criteria pertaining to social and environmental accountability. This study introduces a set of evaluation criteria that aim to guarantee the sustainable selection of suppliers for MSMEs. These criteria encompass economic, social, and environmental factors. Furthermore, the sub-criteria include quality, price, delivery time, eco-reputation, reusability, CSR, and information disclosure. The AHP-VIKOR technique facilitates the assignment of weights to individual criteria and the ranking of alternatives based on their overall performance by considering both the maximizing and minimizing objective functions of each criterion, along with the provided weights for each criterion. The case study utilized an Indonesian company, referred to as X company, to validate the findings. The usefulness and stability of the research technique proposed in this study were confirmed by the application of sensitivity analysis.
