In recent years, the procurement team operates the function of supplier selection and evaluation through various processes to improve supply chain activities. As we know that the decision-making for such problems is always a complicated task for the decision-maker and for solving these kinds of problems there are numbers of multiple criteria decisions making (MCDM) methods are available. For an effective supplier selection process, the decision-maker always has a set of criteria for selecting the best among the number of alternatives. In the chapter, the most suitable supplier will be selected using the Analytic Hierarchy Process based on the Range of Value (ROV) method. The objective weights of the criteria will be obtained by the AHP method and alternatives will be ranked by the ROV method. To understand the method an example is illustrated with ten different alternatives that are ranked concerning their performance by using these AHP and ROV methods.
