Abstract
Partner selection is critical to developing successful collaboration for gaining competitive advantage in the logistics industry. In this paper, we present a hybrid approach based on BOCR and MULTIMOORA for the logistics service provider selection. The proposed approach comprises three steps. In the first step, we identify the partner selection criteria using four categories namely benefits, costs, opportunities and risks (BOCR). The second step involves generating linguistic ratings for potential partners on the identified criteria by a committee of decision-making experts. In the third and the last step, final partner selection is done using fuzzy MULTIMOORA. Linguistic information (fuzzy numbers) is used to address the lack of quantitative data. A numerical application is provided. Monte Carlo simulationbased sensitivity analysis is conducted to determine the robustness of MULTIMOORA to variation in criterion and decision maker weights. The strength of our work is the ability to perform logistics partner selection under limited or lack of quantitative data. Besides, BOCR technique allows evaluation of logistics partners from multiple perspectives namely benefits, costs, opportunities and risks. The use of MULTIMOORA technique permits the generation of robust alternative rankings due to incorporation of three inbuilt evaluation functions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
