Abstract

In this research, a decision support system for recommending the selection of maternity hospitals in Pontianak was developed using the Weighted Product (WP) method, with the constructed system in the form of a web-based application. The aim of this study is to facilitate pregnant women in choosing maternity hospitals in Pontianak based on criteria obtained from a survey of pregnant women, including distance, facilities, cost, and reputation. The WP method was applied through three main stages: weight normalization, vector S calculation, and vector V computation for final ranking. Testing in this research involves five alternative maternity hospitals, and each criterion is assessed on indicators ranging from 1 to 5. The results obtained indicate that Anugerah Bunda Khatulistiwa Maternity Hospital achieved the highest final ranking score among all evaluated alternatives. This system is expected to assist expectant mothers in making more informed decisions when selecting a maternity hospital that best suits their needs.
