Abstract :Nowadays, one of the most important subjects for the companies which are profitable and have continuous management principles, is the fact of having targets. The project management discipline which is the most widely used technique to achieve the targets, is continuing its development. The knowledge areas and the processes for that management discipline are detailed in the guide of PMI insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Project Management Institute);, named as PMBOK insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Project Management Body of Knowledge); which is the most popular approach in project management dicipline. Suppliers are appeared as elements which affect the success of projects in the project management knowledge areas. Having the necessary materials on time, on budget and with the quality desired directly affects project success. Consequently, this is a subject that affects the targets indirectly. There are a lot of models and techniques in supplier selection. In that point, we aim to have an upper look to the situation with the model offered. For that reason, the relations of the supplier subjects and the relation between the projects and the targets are in a critical chain. Supplier selection is associated with the targets in the model and it seems the first perspective in the literature with the model introduced. Also, the techniques used in the model are used together for the first time in the literature. For that purpose, Fuzzy ANP, QFD and Pareto Diagram are combined in the model and the solution is found with Linear Programming.
Keywords : Project management, weighting projects, supplier selection, fuzzy ANP, QFD and pareto
