PROMETHEE V — PROMETHEE with Integer Programming Constraints
PROMETHEE-V (PROMETHEE V — PROMETHEE with Integer Programming Constraints) is a ranking multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method introduced by Brans, J. P. Mareschal, B. in 1992. It turns a decision matrix of alternatives scored on multiple criteria into a structured, reproducible result.
Key highlights
- Follows a transparent, reproducible computational procedure that can be audited step by step.
- Handles multiple criteria of differing scales and units within a single decision matrix.

When to use it
Use when final selection is subject to real-world constraints (budget, categorical quotas, etc.).
Strengths & limitations
Strengths
- Follows a transparent, reproducible computational procedure that can be audited step by step.
- Handles multiple criteria of differing scales and units within a single decision matrix.
Limitations
- Results depend on the chosen normalisation, weights, and parameter settings.
