Procurement department often responsible for providing materials and services needed to companies by evaluating and selecting suppliers. This paper proposes linear weightage model to assist in the decision making activity and helps to select the best supplier among a number of potential suppliers. In this paper, interviews have been conducted for data collection purpose. A case study has been presented applying Linear Weightage Model and the results were shown in the final decision table. The last row in the final decision table represents scores for the suppliers and the highest score indicates the best supplier to be selected.
