Decision Support System for Selection of Internet Services Providers using the ROC and WASPAS Approach

Along with the growth of the internet service provider industry, selecting an Internet Service Provider (ISP) has become an important decision to ensure optimal internet access. However, with so many ISP options available, consumers often face difficulties in choosing the service that best suits their needs. The aim of this research is to produce a decision support system that can help users choose the ISP that best suits their needs and preferences using the ROC (Rank Order Centroid) approach as a weighting technique and the WASPAS (Weighted Aggregated Sum Product Assessment) approach to determine the best alternative. The ROC approach is used to obtain criteria weights based on the ranking order of the importance of the criteria. On the other hand, the WASPAS method is used to determine the best alternative through weighted addition and multiplication, producing a final value that reflects the extent to which each alternative meets the specified criteria. The outcomes of the case study reveal a ranking of alternatives from highest to lowest scores, as follows: First Media (A2) achieving 0.8629, Indihome (A3) at 0.8416, MyRepublic (A5) with 0.7954, Biznet (A1) scoring 0.7844, and Oxygen (A4) at 0.7469. The usability testing yields an average score of 89%, suggesting that the system is apt for utilization, as it aligns with the functionalities users are seeking.
