MACBETHSort: a multiple criteria decision aid procedure for sorting strategic products
提出MACBETHSort方法，基于MACBETH技术对战略产品进行ABC分类，克服传统仅依赖价值或相对比例的局限，并通过实际案例验证。
Efficient companies need to know which their strategic products are. For this purpose, the ABC classification based on the item’s value was developed and was used for a long time. Later, it was recognised that several other criteria need to be considered and multi-criteria ranking methods were applied. However, the classes have always been defined based only on a relative proportion. Therefore, the number of products in a class is independent of the actual importance of the products. In this paper, a new sorting procedure MACBETHSort is introduced, which is an evolution of the choice, ranking and rating technique MACBETH. The procedure has been validated in a real case study for assigning access and entrance solutions in ABC classes.
