【 摘 要 】

One of the most important aspects for companies' success is the relationship between companies and their suppliers. Consequently, the way that a supplier is selected is crucial to the outcome of the business. Thus, we propose a multicriteria decision support model with two phases: the analysis of the products/services from suppliers that need to be evaluated, using PROMSORT, and the analysis of the suppliers of such products/services which is considered critical, using PROMETHEE II. The model was applied to a Distribution Center of an important Brazilian retailer which serves stores in the North and Northeast regions of Brazil. Using the proposed model, companies can focus their attention on those products or services that have the greatest impact on their business results. The model predicts that different decision-making processes should be applied, in accordance with the class of importance into which the products or services are classified.
