Abstract

With the advancement of information technology, the Internet is pivotal in today's society, serving as a global connectivity platform. Leveraging Internet technology within an enterprise can improve operational efficiency and curtail costs. However, traditional Internet platform selection methods cannot simultaneously handle quantitative and qualitative information, fuzzy semantics, and incomplete expert-provided information. To address these limitations, this study integrated the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process (FAHP) and the weighted aggregated sum product assessment (WASPAS) approaches to tackle Internet platform selection problems within an incomplete information environment. To demonstrate the validity of this research approach, this study utilized a construction industry Internet platform selection case to confirm the efficacy of the proposed novel fuzzy analytic hierarchy process-based method. Comparative analysis against the weighted sum model (WSM), weighted product model (WPM), FAHP, and typical WASPAS approaches was conducted with numerical verification, revealing that the proposed method in this study effectively manages comprehensive information and yields more rational outcomes for construction industry Internet platforms.
