Abstract

In recent decades, due to the rapid consumption of natural resources and the need for environmental protection, sustainability in supply chain management has emerged as an increasingly important issue. Therefore, in this study, supplier selection has been performed in order to achieve sustainability, taking into account all aspects: economic, social and environmental criteria. For this purpose, combined FUCOM - Rough SAW approach has been used. The evaluation of  criteria grouped at two levels has been carried out by decision makers according to the needs of the company whose main activity is lime production. To obtain the criterion weight values, the FUCOM (FUll COnsistency Method) has been used.. In order to avoid uncertainty and imprecision in the supplier evaluation process, combination with the Rough SAW method, which is used for ranking and supplier selection, has been performed. In order to control the stability of the used model, a sensitivity analysis has been performed. The first phase involves changing the weights of the criteria, while the second phase involves a comparative analysis using other MCDM methods.
