Shipping is the process of transporting goods from producers to consumers. Most goods will be shipped through a cargo transportation network (physical goods) delivered by land, sea and air. The increasing number of internet users among the public encourages more people to ship goods online. The many choices of shipping services available often cause confusion and obstacles for the public in determining the best service according to their needs, both in terms of cost, delivery time, type of payment and shipping costs. To avoid existing problems, a decision support system is needed that can make it easier for the public to make the right decision in choosing a shipping service partner. The Decision Support System (DSS) for selecting a shipping service partner at the Kefamenanu branch aims to help the public make more precise and efficient decisions in choosing a shipping partner. The method used in this study is the Multi Attribute Utility Theory (MAUT), which allows comparison of various important criteria in selecting a delivery partner. The decision-making process is carried out by assessing each alternative delivery partner based on the weight of the previously determined criteria. Each partner is then given a score for each criterion, which is then calculated using the maut method to produce a final score with the highest score from each alternative. The results of this system are able to provide the best recommendations in selecting delivery services objectively. That way, the Kefamenanu community can make wiser decisions. The implementation of this SPK can improve operational efficiency and community satisfaction, as well as reduce errors in decision making. Thus, this system can help the community to improve the performance of goods delivery at the Kefamenanu branch.Keywords: Delivery of Goods, Decision Support System (DSS), Kefamenanu Community, Maut, Performance
