Final contractor selection using the analytical hierarchy process
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined an alternative contractor selection model called the analytical hierarchy process (AHP), which will help construction clients to identify contractors with the best potential to deliver satisfactory outcomes in a final contractor selection process which is not based simply on the lowest bid.
