Abstract

Our purpose in this paper is to assist decision-makers in the task of selecting project portfolios to satisfy their requirements and guarantee profitable growth. This task usually involves decision-makers having to face multiple objectives and constraints, as well as the uncertainty associated with certain parameters of the problem. Therefore, in this paper, we propose a multiobjective programming model, which includes uncertainty through the use of fuzzy parameters and allows us to represent information not fully known by the decision-makers. The resulting model has been applied to a project portfolio selection process in a public organisation.
