“…Previous research suggests that further discussions about the role and influence of event planners are necessary because, for example, site selection by event planners can encompass major functions of the meeting. Specifically, the availability of hotels, food and beverage services, and transportation, along with the functionality of the venue, are the primary considerations for event planners when deciding where to hold an event [19,20]. In addition to the event facility itself, all other sectors, such as hotels venue, food and beverage suppliers, must implement eco-friendly practices.…”

Abstract:The environmental impacts of meetings, incentives, conventions, and exhibitions (MICE, Event) industries are as far reaching as their economic reach. The travelers who attend events patronize a wide variety of businesses: airlines, car rental agencies, hotels, restaurants, performance venues, and tour operators. The overall research objectives of this study fall on two aspects of sustainability in the event industry: the most prevalent practices that the industry employs and the relative importance of sustainability to convention consumers. This study implements mixed research methods in order to explore the perceptions of sustainable event development in the metropolitan area of Bangkok, Thailand. Empirical evidence on significant issues for event sustainability is provided. Based on the results, recommendations are made to improve sustainable event development in Thailand and offer guidance to the event industry so that it can develop its potential and gain greater prominence on the world MICE stage.

“…As a general rule, decision-makers have mutually exclusive objectives and can process information in different ways because of their previous experience and value judgments. Therefore, methods based on multiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) have emerged to facilitate situations in which more than one criterion are assessed and considered in the decision-making process (Chen, 2006). Among MCDM methods, the AHP assesses the possible criteria involved in the decision in a faster and easier manner based on decision matrixes.…”

Dismissal: Important Criteria in Managerial Decision-Making

et al. 2018

Knowledge about dismissal decision-making, particularly concerning the criteria used by managers in choosing who will be dismissed and why, is scarce. Considering the implications of such decisions for organizations and society, in this paper, we identify the seven most frequently used criteria in dismissal decisions and examine their importance for managers. We collected data through a survey among 385 managers and used the rational ranking and the multicriteria Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to analyze them. The results show that commitment, performance records, and trust have the greatest impact on the dismissal decision, whereas interpersonal relationship, growth potential, and professional experience are considered secondary criteria. These results contribute to extending our knowledge about dismissal decisions and showing the most relevant criteria in these choices and the relevance assigned to each of the criteria so that greater transparency can be achieved.

“…One simple and flexible MADM model used by many scholars [6], [8], [9], [10] in appraisal evaluation is the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). AHP [15] has many advantages such as easy to use, well accepted by decision makers, can be used in SDSS and GDSS, and has matured through multiple revisions.…”

Application of model base in group decision making that makes up a Group Decision Support System (GDSS) is of paramount importance. Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is the multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) that has been applied in GDSS. In order to be effectively used in GDSS, AHP needs to be customized so that it is more user friendly with ease of used features. In this paper, we propose an enhanced AHP model for GDSS tendering. The enhanced AHP method used is the Guided Ranked AHP (GRAHP). It is a technique where decision matrix tables are automatically filled in based on ranked data. However, the generated values in the decision matrix tables can still be altered by following the guidelines which in turn serve the purpose of improving the consistency of the decision matrix table. This process is transparent to Decision Makers because the degree of data inconsistency is visible. A prototype system based on tendering process has been developed to test the GRAHP model in terms of its applicability and robustness.
