Decision Support System is a computer-based system that assists decision-making in utilizing specific data and models to solve various unstructured problems.

The comparison assessment is considered CONSISTENT if the Consistency Ratio (CR) value is not greater than 0.1000. So that the comparison of the criteria does not need to be recalculated because it is CONSISTENT.
