Bidding Strategy to Support Decision-Making Based on Comprehensive Information in Construction Projects

الملخص EN

This paper develops a unified method to support contractor for bidding selection in construction projects.

A cross-functional contractor with 28 candidate units distributed in the three departments (construction units, design units, and suppliers) is used as an example.

This problem is first formulated as a 0-1 quadratic programming problem through optimizing individual performance and collaborative performance of the candidate units based on individual information and collaborative information.

Then, a multiobjective evolutionary algorithm is designed to solve this problem and a bidding selection problem for a major bridge project is used to demonstrate our proposed method.

The results show that the decision-maker (DM) obtains a better contractor if he pays more attention to collaborative performance.
