Abstract: Quality function deployment (QFD) is a valuable method that provides a means of translating customer needs into the appropriate technical requirements for each stage of detailed operations in product development and production. During the QFD implement process, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) has been used to determine the relative importance weights between criteria or the relationship between the row and column variables of each matrix. However, the AHP has the limit with its independence assumptions, which is a special case of the Analytic Network Process (ANP). The ANP is a mu1tiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) method used to derive relative priority from individual judgments, which can deal with all kinds of dependences systematically. Thus, the purpose of this paper is to develop an effective decision-making method based on QFD and ANP approach to help for making better decisions of planning or evaluation problems. Also, an empirical example is presen!
ted to illustrate the application of the proposed method.
