description Multi-criteria decision making (MCDM). Method is a technique where alternatives or options are assessed based on a set of criteria. Criteria weights determination and ranking of alternatives are two important aspects in solving MCDM problems. The evaluation of criteria importance by decision makers and performance rating towards alternatives often involve subjective preferences, which are normally vague and imprecise. This study proposed an improvised algorithm in criteria weights determination based on consistent fuzzy preference relations (CFPR). CFPR requires only (n-l) pair-wise comparisons from a given n criteria as compared to other some existing pairwise-based comparison approaches. We improvised Herrera-Viedma's et. al (2004) algorithm by introducing fuzzy numbers to represent input values for the entries of decision matrix.
