An integrated model for supplier selection in the public procurement sector of defence
提出一个结合层次分析法、Voronoi图/泰森多边形和Reilly定律的模型，帮助国防公共采购经理更客观、灵活且经济地选择供应商，并支持快速决策。
Public procurement in defence includes the supplier selection issue. The purpose of this article is to suggest a model that combines Analytic Hierarchy Process with Voronoi Diagrams/Thiessen Polygons and Reilly’s law in order to propose a way to effectively use European Directive 2009/81/article 23. It also endeavours to expand the model by providing tools that increase its applicability, as well as providing a flexible and cost-effective tool for supplier selection to public procurement managers, allowing quick decision-making. It is also applicable in the correspondent private sector. Points for practitioners The model attempts to enrich supplier selection methods in the public procurement of defence. Its analysis may assist in: assessing potential suppliers more objectively, using a combination of well-established tools; presenting results to management that may reduce budgetary planning and avoid supply disruptions; enhancing the spirit of cooperation among departments of an organization/agency. It allows the joining of mathematics with experience and an important aspect of the legal frame in the public procurement of defence. Practitioners may also conclude that it is expandable to other sectors due to its flexibility.
