Abstract

This study aims to measure the regional competitiveness index for all regencies and municipalities in West Sumatera Province. Using input factors as the main component in order to foster economic growth and regional development and also output factors as the goals of the development, this research used Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) for deciding on the decision-making process. Input factors were divided into three classifications, namely indicator, sub-indicator and variable level, while output factors consisted of merely 4 indicators. The highest weight of indicator input factors is human resource and employment, the highest weight of sub-indicator factors is Productive Business Environment (PBE) by Society, and the highest weight of variables is Life Expectancy. On the other hand, the highest weight of output factors is Employment Productivity. Based on the competitiveness index, municipalities in West Sumatera Province tend to have a higher index than regencies.
