	One of the most difficult problems in construction having to take an objective decision,
	especially when selecting contractors. The decision making process is both complicated and
	time consuming (due to the complex nature of construction projects). Many experts, with
	extensive knowledge of the Construction Industry, take subjective decisions, related to verbal
	methods of decision making. The previously mentioned difficulties mainly relate to the creation
	of a relevant criteria set, answering the decision makers questions. A proper criteria set and
	mathematical tools (like computer calculation algorithms with multi-criteria analysis) could
	significantly improve objective decision making. The authors present a case study – selection
	of contractors – with detailed calculations of AHP method.
