ABSTRACT: 

In this work, the integration between the type-1 fuzzy logic system (T1FLS) and the grey relational analysis (GRA) is ‎investigated to present a warehouse assessment scheme. First, numerous warehouses are assessed based on a defined ‎set of criteria by assigning a warehouse score to each criterion. Second, the GRA is utilized to estimate the grey relational ‎grade, as an overall warehouse performance measure. At this stage, the NICE classification is employed to assign weights ‎for the criteria according to the products that warehouses deal with. The T1FLS is, then, implemented to map the ‎warehouses’ scores of the criteria to the overall warehouse performance indicator. Once the T1FLS is established, it can be ‎employed to directly evaluate new warehouses. Furthermore, this transparent scheme is able to provide a linguistic ‎explanation of the relationships between the given criteria and the warehouse performance. The overall root mean square ‎value for the T1FLS is 0.033.‎
