The most inclusive process in the decision-making process is the analytical hierarchy process.

The decision-making method of the AHP is based on a multi-criteria examination of cost, flexibility, quality, delivery, and polish or machining property. This work provides clarity in the classification of supplier attributes that have been emphasised in the model business. It gives an idea about the AHP and also how to select the supplier using with necessary criteria. The data collection is done in the gear manufacturing industry. A total of 20 suppliers were considered for our evaluation.
