Özet

This study involves an integrated approach consisting of the Fuzzy AEW Method which considers all relevant criteria and involves the contribution of all members of a strategic planning team in the determination of strategic goals as well as the Fuzzy Technique for Order Performance by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) method. The Fuzzy AEW method has been used in weighing the criteria whereas the Fuzzy TOPSIS method has been used in determining the order of the alternatives. This article presents a real-world case using this model in setting targets for improving the institutional capacity of the Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkiye (TuBITAK). In this study, strategic goals have been set forth considering the opinion of strategic planning experts and previous strategic plans, and then the said method has been applied. The model could easily be applied both in the public and private sectors. This new model involves the effective planning of scarce resources and ensures digitalization in planning as well as the determination of goals through analytical methods. Ineffective meetings and workshops of the past will be replaced by a participatory and transparent structure.
