Abstract

In the field of Construction Management (CM), the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is becoming more and more popular as a tool for deciphering difficult circumstances and arriving at wise judgments. Building construction is a multifaceted and intricate profession. Numerous factors, including economics, design, environment, and building type, impact the selections. Application of mathematical models should be taken into consideration in order to clarify the decision-making process and identify the essential quality aspects. A multicriteria analysis approach has the benefit of taking into account several of these performance criteria at once, bridging over multiple domains of knowledge. It also offers the option of balancing the several standards with regard to a particular construction and design environment. The results showed that the most often used AHP application areas in CM were risk management and sustainable building. It was also discovered that AHP is adaptable and may be utilized to handle construction decision-making issues either alone or in combination with other tools. Furthermore, it was shown that the most common reasons for utilizing AHP were its small sample size, high degree of consistency, simplicity, and accessibility to user-friendly software. For academics and practitioners interested in using AHP in CM, this paper offers a helpful resource. It will be helpful to do further study to compare and contrast AHP with other multicriteria decision-making procedures. This will help identify which approaches yield optimal answers in different decision-making settings..
