With respect to bounded rationality of any individual reasoning power perhaps cooperation and participative group work is the only way to achieve a logical,
structured comprehensive decision making. To days modern organizations are so big and complicated that their management is not possible with a single manager so that a manager is obliged to get help from the others in decision making and administration.
Up to now different methods in managing for the effectiveness of group decision making such as brain storming, Delphi method and nominal group techinque have been designed which all of them have certain degrees of short commings in time, costs and Intellectual.
AHP is a modern technique which solves this problem to a greater extent. This method not only has the advantages of other techniques hut because of its very nature of mathematical logic has the capacity of combining the qualitative and quantitative criterion for multiple choice comparisons.
The essence of AHP is based on the decision hierarchy tree. The group member should at first build the decision hierarchy. In this tree the first level is the level of objectives and the last level is the level of competing choices and the middle level is decision making factors.
In this article the application of AHP in coordinating the decisions of group
members has been introduced.
AHP technique will help the top level decision maker to combine and coordinate optimally the decisions of multiple group member.
