Abstract :Customer-oriented new product design is one of the most important processes in the production environment to improve product quality and reliability and maximize their productivity. It is also necessary to consider customer expectations in this process for an effective design. In this paper, we present a methodology which is called Pythagorean Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(PF-AHP); for prioritizing criteria which should be considered for an efficient customer-oriented new product design in Industry 4.0 transition primarily. We use Pythagorean Fuzzy Sets insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(PFSs); to allow experts to make more flexible evaluations and handle the uncertain and vague information in a wider way. We determine five main and eighteen sub-criteria that affect the new product design process and after applying PF-AHP, we find that the most important main-criterion determined as “Production” and sub-criterion determined as “Return on Investment”.
