AB  - Critical path evaluation and selection is a key element in the project control process and appears to be one of the major activities of the professional project management. The aim of this study is develop a model with high reliability for ranking of factors affecting the critical path. In this study, to identify the factors affecting the implementation of critical path was used the Delphi method and used fuzzy preference programming and fuzzy Delphi, fuzzy AHP and SIR. VIKOR for ranking of factors affecting the critical path. We construct a questionnaire for fuzzy AHP and SIR. VIKOR and to increase the validity of Cronbach’s alpha index is used. The results indicate that the four indicators cost, service, delivery and quality are the most important factors affecting the critical path.
