Abstract: Supply chain partner selection (SCPS) is an important issue for firms to remain highly competitive. SCPS is generally formulated as a fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making problem, of which the most crucial step is how to cope with the fuzzy correlations of multi-criteria and individual differences of experts. To gain more exact results, we adopt interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy sets to express the fuzziness of multi-criteria. Fuzzy Choquet integral model is developed to explain correlations of multi-criteria and calculate the evaluation results of each expert. An improved Dempster–Shafer theory is utilized to reconcile differences and synthesize each expert decision results. Additionally, an example is presented to illustrate the potential application of the proposed method.
