Goal Programming is a powerful technique for the analysis of real world problems in which one is often unable to reduce the problem to a single dimention objective. Therefore, it is a useful technique to solve the problems of modern business which is involving multiple and conflicting goals.
In these days, material purchasing and allocation is very important but multidimentional problem. So this paper is to provide a model for this problem utilizing Goal programming. By doing so, we are to test the possibility of GP application to material purchasing and allocation problem and then extend the application area of Goal Programming in real world problems.
The result of the model appears to be relistic and satisfactory for the problem. If the decision maker desired to pursue further analysis in terms of sensitivity of the solution, it could be easily accomodated by changing the priority and constraints.
