Summary: | Decision-making process is an integral part of every sporting event across the globe. This process uses inputs from single to multi-decision makers. To make a sporting event a success, appropriate decision making needs to be made starting from hosting-right to the end of the event. Thus, this study presents a framework that scientifically determines the hosting-right for a sporting event. The framework is based on techno-economic analysis of potential hosting locations for a sporting event. Techno-economic criteria are analysed using fuzzy TOPSIS (technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution) method. The analysis of the hosting-right is also performed through technical, economic, techno-economic and cost-benefit ratio perspectives. A case study of national sports festival in Nigeria is used to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed framework. Twelve technical and eight economic criteria are considered in the proposed framework. Six loca-tions are considered during the implementation of the proposed framework. The results obtained show that the issue of hosting-right award depends on the evaluation criteria that are considered by decision-makers. |
