Abstract: Project selection is one of the most important decisions for an organisation to achieve its goals and manage its resources effectively. This study aims to develop a project evaluation method using the balanced scorecard (BSC) dimensions. Although the BSC technique has been used in combination with other methods in various fields, such as supplier qualification and project evaluation, the dimensions of the BSC method have not been defined as parameters in the mathematical model of a knapsack problem. By doing so and considering time and budget constraints, the developed mathematical model selects the most suitable projects using the weighted sum of parameters. The performance of the developed model was tested with randomly generated sample data. Sixteen alternatives were assessed to determine the impact of varying dimension coefficients, budgets, project durations and labour requirement constraints to be established by organisations. The model generates consistent results and can be used by organisations at the project and investment evaluation step.
