Sažetak
Today's economic crisis has led to bankruptcy of many successful, but usually large-sized enterprises. This brought into question the future of large-sized enterprises. However, the only alternative to large-sized enterprises (LEs) is networking of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) into Regional Production Networks (RPNet). RPNet is non-hierarchical organizational form in which every SME is autonomous. Hence, every SME of production network is capable and wiling to be part of special cooperation inside network called Virtual Enterprise (VE). For each new product a new virtual enterprise is formed from different SMEs. The ques tion is: which SMEs will be part of new virtual enterprise? If it is possible to evaluate SME's comp etences, it is also possible to rank SMEs. Ranking of SMEs according to technical, organizational and human competences is multi-criteria decision analysis (MCDA) problem. So, in this paper PROM ETHEE method is selected to perform a ranking of SMEs.
