The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and analytic network process (ANP) pioneered by Professor Thomas L. Saaty (University of Pittsburgh, USA), have revolutionised the way decisions are made in business organisations. Scholarly papers examining the applications of AHP/ANP processes in business settings have been published widely in world-class business journals.

Both methods can deal effectively with quantitative as well as qualitative criteria in the decision making process.
