Aggregating Organizational Performance Metrics Using The Analytic Hierarchy Process, Bret L. Indermill
Aggregating Organizational Performance Metrics Using The Analytic Hierarchy Process, Bret L. Indermill
Theses and Dissertations
Measurement provides factual information which is necessary for effective control of business processes.
