2. Decision-matrix method - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision-matrix_method

   The decision-matrix method, also Pugh method or Pugh concept selection, invented by Stuart Pugh, [1] is a qualitative technique used to rank the multi-dimensional options of an option set. It is frequently used in engineering for making design decisions but can also be used to rank investment options, vendor options, product options or any ...

3. Analytic hierarchy process - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytic_hierarchy_process

   Analytic hierarchy process. A simple AHP hierarchy, with final priorities. The goal is to select the most suitable leader from a field of three candidates. The factors to be considered are experience, education, charisma, and age. According to the judgments of the decision makers, Dick is the strongest candidate, followed by Tom, then Harry.

4. Vendor-managed inventory - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vendor-managed_inventory

   Vendor-managed inventory (VMI) is an inventory management practice in which a supplier of goods, usually the manufacturer, is responsible for optimizing the inventory held by a distributor. Under VMI, the retailer shares their inventory data with a vendor (sometimes called supplier) such that the vendor is the decision-maker who determines the ...

5. Flow process chart - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_process_chart

   The first structured method for documenting process flow, e.g., in flow shop scheduling, the flow process chart, was introduced by Frank and Lillian Gilbreth to members of ASME in 1921 as the presentation "Process Charts, First Steps in Finding the One Best Way to Do Work". [2] The Gilbreths' tools quickly found their way into industrial ...

6. Flowchart - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flowchart

   A simple flowchart representing a process for dealing with a non-functioning lamp. A flowchart is a type of diagram that represents a workflow or process. A flowchart can also be defined as a diagrammatic representation of an algorithm, a step-by-step approach to solving a task. The flowchart shows the steps as boxes of various kinds, and their ...

7. Event-driven process chain - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event-driven_Process_Chain

   An Event-driven process chain (EPC) is an ordered graph of events and functions. It provides various connectors that allow alternative and parallel execution of processes. Furthermore it is specified by the usages of logical operators, such as OR, AND, and XOR. A major strength of EPC is claimed to be its simplicity and easy-to-understand notation.

8. Process map - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_map

   Process map is a global-system process model that is used to outline the processes that make up the business system and how they interact with each other. Process map shows the processes as objects, which means it is a static and non-algorithmic view of the processes. It should be differentiated from a detailed process model, which shows a ...

9. Data-flow diagram - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data-flow_diagram

   A data-flow diagram is a way of representing a flow of data through a process or a system (usually an information system). The DFD also provides information about the outputs and inputs of each entity and the process itself. A data-flow diagram has no control flow—there are no decision rules and no loops. Specific operations based on the data ...
