Software implementation of the optimal temporal intuitionistic fuzzy algorithm for franchisee selection

The selection of the most suitable franchisee applicant in an uncertain environment in a particular moment of time is a key decision for a franchisor and the success of a franchising business. In this work, for the first time, we describe a problem for choosing the optimal candidate for the franchise chain and algorithm for a solution in terms of temporal intuitionistic fuzzy pairs and index matrices as a means for data analysis in uncertain conditions over time. We also use our software utility to demonstrate the proposed algorithm and to apply the decision support approach to a franchisee selection for the largest fast food restaurant chain in Bulgaria.
