“…The DEMATEL method was first used to obtain the relationships between the drivers. This method, in addition to showing the cause and effect relationships (Du & Shen, 2023;Šmidovnik & Grošelj, 2023), helps to improve the ISM method. In the fourth step, the ISM method was used for structural-interpretive modeling.…”

“…Although analytical hierarchy process is widely used to deal with multi-criteria decision-making problems in real circumstances [79][80][81], it fails to provide satisfactory results in situations that need modelling interrelations and interactions between selection criteria being considered. Additionally, ANP is advised over other methods like full consistency method, best-worst method and level-based weighted assessment in situations that necessitate structured and interdependency-based modeling of complex problems [82,83]. To this end, FANP is utilized to accommodate interdependencies and influences between PPP selection criteria [84][85][86][87].…”

Public–private partnership (PPP) infrastructure projects have attracted attention over the past few years. In this regard, the selection of private partners is an integral decision to ensure its success. The selection process needs to identify, scrutinize, and pre-qualify potential private partners that sustain the greatest potential in delivering the designated public–private partnership projects. To this end, this research paper proposes an integrated multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) model for the purpose of selection of the best private partners in PPP projects. The developed model (HYBD_MCDM) is conceptualized based on two tiers of multi-criteria decision making. In the first tier, the fuzzy analytical network process (FANP) is exploited to scrutinize the relative importance of the priorities of the selection criteria of private partners. In this respect, the PPP selection criteria are categorized as safety, environmental, technical, financial, political policy, and managerial. In the second tier, a set of seven multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) algorithms is leveraged to determine the best private partners to deliver PPP projects. These algorithms comprise the combined compromise solution (CoCoSo), simple weighted sum product (WISP), measurement alternatives and ranking according to compromise solution (MARCOS), combinative distance-based assessment (CODAS), weighted aggregate sum product assessment (WASPAS), technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS), and FANP. Thereafter, the Copeland algorithm is deployed to amalgamate the obtained rankings from the seven MCDM algorithms. Four real-world case studies are analyzed to test the implementation and applicability of the developed integrated model. The results indicate that varying levels of importance were exhibited among the managerial, political, and safety and environmental criteria based on the nature of the infrastructure projects. Additionally, the financial and technical criteria were appended as the most important criteria across the different infrastructure projects. It can be argued that the developed model can guide executives of governments to appraise their partner’s ability to achieve their strategic objectives. It also sheds light on prospective private partners’ strengths, weaknesses, and capacities in an attempt to neutralize threats and exploit opportunities offered by today’s construction business market.

“…The Decision-making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) method is a widely used multicriteria decisionmaking method [4]. It is used to evaluate the relationships between factors in various fields [5]. DEMATEL helps to extract the complex structure of a problem by identifying cause-and-effect relationships among different elements [6].…”

The transition from pediatric to adult cardiology care is a pivotal moment in the healthcare journey of individuals with congenital heart conditions or childhood-onset heart diseases. This multifaceted process requires meticulous consideration of clinical, psychosocial, and logistical factors. This research aims to explore the critical criteria for transitioning pediatric patients to adult cardiology, delving into the challenges and opportunities inherent in this healthcare shift. The identified factors for successful transition, including age and developmental stage, medical complexity, cardiac function, psychosocial factors, insurance, and financial considerations, play integral roles in the transition process. Leveraging analytical methodologies, particularly the Fuzzy Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL), this study involves three experts who assess criteria linguistically, converted to Triangular Fuzzy Numbers, and averaged. Defuzzification, using the CFCS method, yields crisp values. Results reveal that Medical Complexity (U+V = 3.96, U-V = 0.233), Insurance (U+V = 3.931, U-V = 0.22), Psychosocial Factors (U+V = 3.839, U-V = 0.387), and Age and Developmental Stage (U+V = 3.802, U-V = 0.106) follow Cardiac Function (U+V = 4.312, U-V = 0.946) in ranking. Age and Developmental Stage, Medical Complexity, Psychosocial Factors, and Insurance are considered causal variables, with Cardiac Function as an effect. These numerical insights enhance our understanding of transition criteria interdependencies, informing tailored healthcare strategies.
