Abstract
In the early 1990s, organizations started to use information technology and software engineering, which encouraged the companies for employing project management methodologies to survive and then advance in competitive technologic environment. Use of project management methodologies provides efficient planning, budgeting and scheduling processes and high management quality for companies. A lot of different methodologies were developed and used to reach better ways of defining the project requirements, analyzing the problem, and implementing it in a systematic manner. In 2001, agile project management methodology came forward in response to cope with waterfall project methodology’s limitations that arise from unpredictability of technology evolution, customer requirements, and unstable business environments. In this study, intuitionistic fuzzy COPRAS method, which aims to obtain a solution relative to the ideal solution, is used to rank agile project alternatives and identify the best performing one among them. Intuitionistic fuzzy sets are used to deal with loss of information and hesitation in data that may occur in operations with fuzzy numbers. The application of the proposed intuitionistic fuzzy decision-making approach is illustrated by conducting a case study.
