            Abstract

            This paper introduces the concept of fuzzy logic, some terms used in this kind of logic, and uses it to evaluate and choose where to deploy factories and other enterprises. In addition, a model is made using the InFuzzy program to evaluate a choice of a location within the Manaus Industrial Pole - PIM, using objective and subjective criteria within the fuzzy logic. This article aims to present the fuzzy logic in the context of production engineering, select the parameters that define the best location, develop models that represent the subject in the study and verify the applicability by simulating other case studies and comparing results.
