AHP based group decision making using keypads

In this paper we deal with the AHP based group decision making using keypads which was constructed as a methodology to meet the needs of group decision making. It is a way of aggregating group judgments that allows a group to enhance the validity of the outcome by including the importance of people’s knowledge, expertise and experience, to accept the disparate power of its members when eliciting their judgments, and to make group decision making more efficient, by reducing the redundancy in judgments and spending less time and money for reaching an agreement, to check a consistency of judgments and to purge the possibility of group thinking. In addition, we present the case study “Ranking of means of state support for international projects” and the results of implementation of the AHP based group decision making using keypads. The purpose of the paper is to provide good insight into the use of the AHP based group decision making using keypads, that is, a multiple criteria decision-making methodology which could be used in solving group decision making problems. It will provide an effective framework for guiding managers in solving problems based on the group decision making.
