description This   research   paper   presents   a   methodology   to   assist enterprise decision-makers CDMs) to select from a numbers of processes during the Business Process Reengineering (BPR) according to organizational objectives. For  this  purpose,  the proposed methodology utilizes fuzzy QFD technique to convert the qualitative data (DMs' opinion) to quantitative ones and then calculates  the  effects  of  each  process  on  the  organization objectives and criteria. Then, by using the result of fuzzy QFD, the amount of satisfaction of each process according to each criterion    is  calculated.    By  combining    this   data   with   other effective  variables  in BPR  projects  such  as "cost"  and "time",  a multi-objective   goal programming  (MOOP)  model  is formulated and solved  to identify  the most appropriate  business  processes. Finally,    an   example    is   presented    to   illustrate    how   the methodology   works.  The  proposed  model  was also applied  to  a public-service  organization  by considering  three main objectives: project   quality,  project   cost,  and  project   time.  The   achieved results were quite satisfactory and promising.
