“…Within this structure, higher levels can be subdivided into more intricate tiers. This variable hierarchy can subsequently be integrated into decision support frameworks and subjected to assessment using multicriteria analysis methodologies [ 33 ]. Constructing a mental map proves valuable in arranging these variables, offering insight into the predicament and components of the hierarchy [ 34 , 35 ].…”

The consumption of milk and derivatives is part of the diet of a large part of the population. The substantial demand for dairy products has prompted the industry to expand its product range by incorporating whey, a previously disregarded by-product, as a significant ingredient. Consequently, the application of whey within the dairy sector has escalated, fostering novel food trends driven by market, nutritional, technical, environmental, and economic considerations. In this context, the primary objective of this research was to identify, categorise, and analyse the competitive factors influencing the production and use of whey within the dairy products industry and to correlate these factors with Brazil’s economic, food, and nutritional landscape. A comprehensive literature review encompassing 41 articles and scientific documents sourced from PubMed, Scopus, and SciELO databases and supplementary research was undertaken to pinpoint these factors. A total of seventeen competitive factors that exert influence over the production and use of whey within the dairy industry were identified. These seventeen factors were systematically classified and modelled into a hierarchical decision tree structure. A meticulous analysis of these factors revealed a spectrum of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats associated with this sector, considering the Brazilian nutritional, food, and economic context. This research will help elaborate healthy strategies for developing new products with whey in the composition and maintaining the nutritional quality for the consumer. In addition, the research can help companies manage their operations, which can be directed towards improving their performance in the factors discussed in this research, with reflections and impacts on competitiveness in nutritional, environmental, economic, technological, and organisational dimensions.

“…For this definition, the Analytic Hierarchy Processes (AHP) methodology (Saaty, 1977), was chosen, as it is a widely used methodology to aid in decision-making in problems related to energy management and also due to the suitability of the method to the proposed problem (Kaya et al, 2018;Wang et al, 2009). The AHP method consists of defining the criteria that have an impact on decision-making, followed by a pairwise comparison of the criteria carried out by specialists with technical knowledge in the area (Schaefer et al, 2023). Through the data, the calculations of the weights of each criterion are performed, as well as the consistency of the answers.…”

The assets of electric power transmission systems are characterized by their high cost and complexity, leading utilities to seek ways to improve the efficiency and economic-financial performance of these assets. Thus, this article proposes a tool to support asset management for electricity transmission systems. This tool considers the useful life of the equipment, its importance to the system, financial aspects, and the forecast of electricity demand. An evaluation of the criteria that impact decision-making on the replacement of assets with specialists was carried out. Thus, the tool uses the Analytic Hierarchy Process method to classify the most critical equipment in the system. For analysis of future scenarios, the Monte Carlo Method was incorporated into the tool to simulate the behavior of equipment during a defined time horizon. As a result, the tool presents a ranking of the most critical equipment in the system under analysis within the simulated time horizon. The tool was applied in a case study with real data in the power transformer of a Brazilian utility. The tool helps in decision-making indicating changes that may be made in the period under review, their likely impact on equipment loading, and the list of critical transformers in the system.
