Application of analysis of hierarchies in the choice of a method of automation of a company

Automating a company’s business processes is an important part of optimizing its operations. The automation process is a project activity based on the principles of achieving the goal, spending resources and meeting deadlines. The choice of automation method depends on many criteria (preferences, desires, technical and cost components) that must be considered in the planning of the project. The method of analyzing hierarchies will make it possible to organize in the best way the decisionmaking process regarding the choice of an automation method. The hierarchy analysis method, developed by the American mathematician Thomas Saaty about 30 years ago, is still widely used in practice for making decisions in all subject areas. In matters of choosing how to automate business processes of a company, this method is the best fit, because It makes it possible in the best way to take into account in the project all the requirements for the future system, to ensure the most acceptable functionality, to organize the most effective implementation and further support. The effectiveness of its use in the selection of automation systems is demonstrated by the example of the construction company PSK «Dom-skazka» engaged in automatization of business processes. To solve our problem, six criteria were chosen. As a result of the analysis, a response was received, allowing to decide on the choice of how to automate the production process. In the article, the authors consider an example of applying the hierarchy analysis method in solving the problem of choosing an automation method. The task has been set, alternatives have been chosen, selection criteria have been described, mathematical calculations have been carried out and the results have been obtained, on the basis of which a reasonable choice of the best alternative (automation method) has been made for the company in question.
