Designing a DSS for the assessment of company performance and viabilityDesigning a DSS for the assessment of company performance and viability Peer-Reviewed Journal Publication Δημοσίευση σε Περιοδικό με Κριτές 2015-11-061992enIn this article, a multicriteria financial evaluation system for the assessment of company performance and viability is proposed. The main advantage of the proposed system is that it combines qualitative and quantitative (financial) evaluation criteria. Company evaluation is performed by calculating a total score for each company based on its performance on every criterion and by ranking the companies from best to worst according to their total score. The system may also sort the companies into groups. The system capabilities are illustrated by a study of a group of 25 companies.http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Computer Science in Economics and Management 5141-56 Zopounidis Konstantinos Ζοπουνιδης Κωνσταντινος Pouliezos Anastasios Πουλιεζος Αναστασιος D.
