The evaluation of an electroplating facility as compared to best available practice can prove a challenge as the obtaining of detailed data is a problem. This availability of data could compromise the evaluation process and would also result in drawn out time frames. Various models exist which are either over simplified and do not reflect the true status of the company or are too complex and require a high level of skill and huge time investments. It is aimed to present a model that uses fuzzy evaluation systems together with process models to determine the operational status of the company. Minimum data is required as compared to previous models. The system would then generate a profile of the company as compared to best available practice.
