Abstract

Construction project risk management plays an important role in both theory and practice. One of the most important tasks in construction risk management is construction contractor selection. This process has a significant impact on the project completed process, especially can avoid risks in the future and bring benefits for investors. However, how to select a capable construction contractor for a project is a necessary issue to be studied. This study combines AHP with TOPSIS in construction contractor selection. The results show that the application of AHP with TOPSIS finds high-quality contractors that satisfy the requirements of investors.
