Application of Analytic Hierarchy Process to Intelligent Transportation Systems Equipment Evaluation Process / 智慧型運輸系統設備之層級分析評選作業

碩士 / 義守大學 / 土木與生態工程學系碩士班 / 94 / Intelligent Transportation Systems have been going through a phase of an all-out promotion in Taiwan. Every kind of ITS equipment procurement is already in full swing. This study proposes a strict selection model to prevent problems from occurring during the tender process for construction and the evaluation procedure of ITS equipment procurement. This model adopts Modified Delphi Method to set up effective evaluation criteria, and makes the most of Analytic Hierarchy Process to determine each criterion’s weight through a consistent analysis by surveying a number of experts. Then this study simulates a tender event, referring to AHP weighted criteria and the selection committee’s standards for evaluation, respectively using the General Score Technique, Ranking Method and Price Per Score Point Method of The Most Advantageous Tender evaluation system to analyze each bidder’s performance according to Simple Additive Weighting Method.

This study, based on AHP, divides the criteria into three levels. Intelligent Traffic Equipment Effective Decision Evaluation Criteria level is the target level. There are five criteria at the first level, and 24 evaluation criteria at the second level. After the calculation with the decision analysis software, Expert Choice 2000, the study finds that at the first level, the criterion Effectiveness (34.8%) takes the first place. From second to fifth are User (25.7%), Manager (16.6%), Equipment (12.5%) and Economics (10.4%). Meanwhile, at the second level, the criteria Traveling Time and Cost Reduction (10.8%) are the most urgently important. Next two are Safety Improvement (10.3%) and Road Efficiency Increase (9.3%).

The simulated tender event is operated by referring to Kaohsiung City’s ATMS construction to simulate a tender invitation document and three bidders’ service proposals for experts to evaluate. After adopting the three methods, the General Score Technique, Ranking Method and Price Per Score Point Method, of The Most Advantageous Tender evaluation system for assessment, all of the results show that bidder B wins. Hence, it is apparent that the application of this study’s model is stable. Moreover, most of the results of the professional evaluation members are tending to be consistent except the one from the governmental evaluation members shows difference.


This present study establishes an objective and strict ITS Equipment Procurement Model, proposes criteria to set up the regulation, weighting method and selection method, and simulates a tender event for an experiment on selecting the assistant service supplier and the host service supplier. This model can solve problems which may occur in the modern Most Advantageous Tender evaluation system, such as eliminating the disturbances for the committee to evaluate the suppliers’ proposals, reducing the difficulties for the authorities to determine the weighting and evaluation categories, and removing the influences of the experts during evaluation. Furthermore, this study deals with the ITS tender case according to multi-target evaluation criteria, hoping to meet the needs of the system much better in order to prevent controversies from happening in the future.
