Abstract
The method known as the analytical hierarchy process (AHP), a theoretical and methodological concept of multi-criteria analysis, is increasingly used in solving various decision-making problems. AHP is an excellent support to both the individual and group decision-making process, however, the involvement of a greater number of decision makers complicates the process and requires a different approach to when an individual decides alone. The synthesis of individual decisions within a group can be done in various ways, but the problem is how to deal with different levels of consistency when there are a number of decision makers. Thus, this paper presents some of the methods for defining the individual weights of decision makers in group AHP decision making.
