“…Also merely placing the criteria in itself brings structure to the process, and again decreases computational intensity (Frimpon, 2012). Figure 3 is a graphic that captures the essence of the discussions above.…”

This paper has two objectives; to come up with a set of attributes that can be used to measure presidential aspirants in a democratic governance system, and to co-opt the attributes so assembled into a mathematical model that can be used to compute the best candidate among a myriad of competing alternatives. The model will have as inputs multiple and disparate criteria which will need to be transformed into dimensionless utilities for meaningful comparisons. The paper espouses why Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA), with its variants of MAUT, MAVT and AHP is an appropriate tool to use to accomplish such a task. Constructed piecewise linear functions were used instead of linear Likert scales for better accuracy.

“…Hence, the ERP system can offer high value to any organization in achieving long‐term profitability and maintaining a solid competitive edge (Nemati & Mangaladurai, ). Therefore, it provides many benefits to organizations, such as streamlining business processes, shortening cycle times, rapid response to data analytics, improving customer service, reducing costs, responding to the market quickly and proactively, support decision making, in addition to operational, tactical, and strategic benefits (Frimpon, ). Morever, ERP system is a strategic decision support tool that helps an organization to gain competitive advantage by integrating business processes and optimizing the available resources (O'Leary, ).…”

Nowadays enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems are crucial for each company to automate and manage its business seamlessly and possess a competitive advantage.This paper was conducted with the purpose of determining which ERP capabilities categorized in IT capabilities, including integration, information access, IT skills and agility, and organizational capabilities including qualified human resources, top management support can affect decision-making efficiency and competitive advantage types (low cost advantage and/or differentiation advantage), it also examines the impact of decision-making efficiency on competitive advantage types. The problem of this paper is summarized in the uncertainty of the relationship between ERP capabilities and competitive advantage, as well as the absence of studies in this field. So, a survey was applied on 162 companies in Dakahlia Governorate, Egypt in order to investigates the impact of ERP capabilities on low-cost advantage, differentiation advantage, and decision making efficiency, in order to determine whether each category of ERP capabilities can affect any competitive advantage type and decision-making efficiency in itself or they must be combined with each other to occur impact, and finally examine the decision making efficiency impact on competitive advantage types.

“…A factor that is critical to the success of this kind of exercise is intuitively referred to as a Critical Success factor (CSF). Therefore, critical success factors (CSFs) are variables that are fundamental to the success of the selection of the leader, and an institution must handle these CSFs well in order to have a successful exercise (Frimpon, 2012).…”

The selection of a school leader is a multi attribute problem that needs to be addressed taking into consideration the peculiar needs of an institution. This paper is intended to specify the critical success factors (CSFs) of college leaders as perceived by students. A survey comprising the 37 attributes of The Leaders Attributes Inventory (LAI) of Moss was given to the students in a local university to determine their best 10. The 10 selected attributes were mapped onto the Leadership Effectiveness Index (LEI) where they were grouped under the 3 categories of Social Skills, Management Skills and Personal Characteristics. The top three attributes identified were "Visionary, Planning and Achievement oriented". The research seeks to contribute to the understanding of the critical success factors of college leadership. Another objective of the study is to create a model to measure candidates using the attributes so identified.
