Multi-criterion optimization of production range generation by an enterprise

A methodological approach to solving the problem related to multi-criterion optimization of production range generation by an enterprise is considered in the paper. Two most practical techniques to solve the given task are suggested: a generalized criterion method and a sequential transfer method. By way of the expert evaluation technique a problem of information support to realize the given methods is solved through computer simulation of the initial task solution. With expert opinions taken into consideration, collective normalization of particular criteria of the problem – “Kemeny’s median†− is calculated. The given ranking allows a decision-maker to use methods of multi-criterion task solution, and therewith to give maximum consideration to opinions of all experts. The technique suggested in the paper makes it possible to develop administrative decisions aimed at generation of optimal production range of an enterprise.
