This article presents a methodology that uses the variables used in the SWOT model (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats), based on the subjective opinions of several experts. The presented methodology (Fuzzy SWOT), is an automated system to aid decision making, whose output is the viability of a business. The implemented system presented conservative results, allowing the decision maker to maximize his business. This system also makes it possible to carry out sensitivity analysis in order to assist the decision maker, which are the variables that most impact the business.
