N2 - Selection of appropriate suppliers is one of the important strategies for enhancing the quality of output of any company, which has a direct effect on the company's reputation. Worst practice frontier-slack-based measure (WPF-SBM) model is one of the new model in data envelopment analysis. In this paper, imprecise data envelopment analysis approach and undesirable outputs are used to develop WPF-SBM model. Then, the proposed model is applied for a supplier selection problem. A numerical example demonstrates the application of the proposed model.
