Abstract :
Owing to the vague concepts frequently represented in ERP decision, it´s important to use the uncertainty reasoning theory to quantify the information from experts. This paper used analytic hierarchy process (AHP) based on multi-experts to obtain the weight of evaluation attributes firstly. Then, the D-S evidence theory was proposed to facilitate ERP system selection. The result shows the validity of this method through demonstration on 3 ERP systems.
