چکیده
In an era of rapid change, complexity, and uncertainty, organizations must rely on sustainable project portfolio management to achieve long-term objectives. In project-oriented environments, selecting the most suitable project portfolio remains a critical challenge. To address this, advanced decision-making approaches, particularly multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques, have been developed to support well-informed and dependable choices. This study develops a new synergistic integration of Interval-Valued Fuzzy Level-Based Weight Assessment (IVF-LBWA) and Interval-Valued Fuzzy Multi-Attribute Ideal Real Comparative Analysis (IVF-MAIRCA), to improve decision-making in uncertain environments. In contrast to traditional methods, these approaches utilize interval-valued fuzzy numbers, thereby increasing the precision of project ranking and selection. An application example involving five projects and six evaluation criteria is provided to demonstrate the practical application of these methods. The results indicate that IVF-LBWA and IVF-MAIRCA yield stable and consistent project rankings, reinforcing their applicability in real-world scenarios. A sensitivity analysis was performed across 40 different criteria weighting scenarios to evaluate the impact of weight variations on project rankings. The results demonstrate that the proposed integrated approach preserves ranking stability, reflecting decision-makers’ priorities and the relative importance of each criterion. These findings validate its effectiveness in managing uncertainty and supporting reliable decision-making. The findings confirm that this approach provides a systematic and reliable framework for sustainable project portfolio selection. By enhancing decision accuracy and strengthening resilience to uncertainty, it enables decision-makers to align project selection with long-term sustainability, resource efficiency, and strategic objectives.
