Probabilistic-Possibilistic Approach to the Optimal Selection of a Contractor
Yugoslav journal of operations research, Tome 6 (1996) no. 1, p. 129
This paper deals with the problem of the optimal choice among building
contractor firms tendering for a construction project . The probability and possibility of
such firms completing a project in a given period of time is considered. The completion
of a job is treated as a fuzzy event The procedure for ascertaining the expected time for
the completion of a project at the expected cost of the project is based upon the
probability and possibility theory. The selection of a contractor is made upon the
minimal expected cost criterion. Following these assumptions a computer program has
been created. The example in the paper illustrates the program.
Keywords:
Fuzzy sets, possibility theory , bidding competition, selection of a contractor
