Abstract: Abstract The Multistage Bipolar Method considered in the paper deals with multistage decision processes. Multistage alternatives are not compared directly to each other, but they are confronted with the stage sets of reference objects—desirable and non-acceptable. In the paper vectors and pointer functions are defined. The aim of the paper is to apply them to classify and rank multistage alternatives and search for the final solution. Our method simplifies the procedure of finding the final solution and allows to use single criterion dynamic programming to solve the problem.
