Abstract—This paper studies the research in the area of analysis hierarchy process (AHP), goal programming (GP), time series analysis (TSA) and expert system (ES), which resulted in the development of the purchasing of laboratory reagent system (PLRS). This paper also introduces how a decision support system for purchasing of laboratory reagent system can be modeled, constructed, explored and explained. It is not only to promote the automatic process through a systematic framework of decision support system for purchasing of laboratory reagent, but also to increase the performance of optimize cost and to highly benefit the pioneer who uses this approach.

Index Terms—analysis hierarchy process, goal programming, time series analysis, expert system, purchasing of laboratory reagent.
