Abstract: Evaluation on the selection of winning contractors of tenders requires an assessment of the process as the most important element. That is because there are so many criteria taken into account by their clients. One of the contractors’ service clients in Indonesia is the Technical Services Region V Pertamina who is responsible for any undertakings of investment projects in the area of East Java, Bali and Nusa Tenggara. However, the potential problems occur frequently are construction failure and belated project which is underway for years past the expected time of construction work. The construction phase is a direct indication of the contractor selection process. Poor construction phase cannot be separated from the under privilege tendering process. As a result of the bad contractor selection process, the projects are undertaken by the unqualified and inexperienced contractors. This research is expected to provide solutions to optimize the cost and quality of contractors. Design of this research is descriptive, with the case study method. The approach taken is a mixed research (mix methodology) that combines qualitative and quantitative approaches. The data in this study were collected through questionnaires. Method of data analysis used in this study uses Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP). Results revealed that the method can be used for predicting overall relative strength of each candidate. This application can also be developed to the wider scope of work and qualification of contractors.
