Nowadays, several companies have to apply an appropriate decision-making-method, in order to survive in a high competitive circumstance. The appropriate method is one of the crucial management methods for sustaining a business organization. Since, recently, customers do not only concern about the quality issue, but also environmental concerning has been considerably increased and continually developed. Therefore, this research's main purpose is to develop a new quantification method integrating both qualitative and environmental issues together for a better result. As quality and environmental aspects are dissimilar in term of ranges and units, these differences are eliminated by using a normalization approach. This proposed decision method employed six corrugated roofs. The outcomes present; five developing roofs are environmentally friendlier than the existing corrugated roofs. Still, this ecological benefit is compensated with the qualitative capability. ©2010 IEEE.
