ELECTRE rejects one-number scoring: a cheap supplier with a bad defect rate shouldn't win just because price got enough weight. Built by Bernard Roy in 1964, ELECTRE compares options pair by pair, letting a single unacceptable weakness veto an otherwise strong result. Powerful for supplier and vendor decisions with real trade-offs — but thresholds are subjective, rankings can stay incomplete, and it's overkill for simple, fully compensatory choices.
