This note presents a methodology that combines tournament ranking and AHP approaches to create a ranking scheme that deals explicitly with missing data and ties in the tournament scheme.

Abstract

When one undertakes a benchmarking study, it is quite typical to collect performance data on a set of business processes from a variety of organizations. While one can compare efficiency on a process-by-process level, how can one compare the overall efficiency of one organization versus another using this process-level data? This note presents a methodology that combines tournament ranking and Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) approaches to create a ranking scheme that deals explicitly with missing data and ties in the tournament scheme.
