Özet

Due to the developing market conditions, changing customer expectations, and shortening of product life cycles, it is inevitable for companies to produce high-quality products that will meet customer requirements. Making the right decisions on issues such as working with right supplier, planning production correctly, ensuring effective stock management, and managing the cash flow are some of the factors that affect and change the expectations of the customers. In this study, hybrid quality function deployment (QFD) and analytical hierarchy process (AHP) methodology were used, focusing on supplier selection problems. The weights of the quality requirements (QRs) of the customers were determined by the neutrosophic AHP approach, and then the quality characteristics (QCs) were prioritized in the quality house, considering the relationship between the QRs and QCs. Finally, alternative suppliers were evaluated in terms of QCs using the NAHP method and the most suitable supplier was determined as the Austrian origin company
