Interactive Internet-based Tool Proposal for the WASPAS method: a contribution for decision-making process

Abstract

This paper presents the findings of the waspasWEB Project, which endeavors to furnish decision makers with a readily accessible mechanism for employing the "Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment (WASPAS)" method. The project's societal contribution encompasses the development of a user-friendly, publicly accessible internet tool, as well as a package released on the Comprehensive R Archive Network (CRAN) to cater to the R language user community. The WASPAS method represents a relatively novel approach that has garnered recognition in both scholarly literature and the commercial domain. The utilization of Operations Research methodologies is crucial in justifying decisions, and this endeavor strives to advance the adoption of such methodologies by offering managers, researchers, and the general public an intuitive and easily approachable multicriteria decision-making tool.
