Methods for managing uncertainty and fuzziness caused by a turbulent and volatile corporate environment play an important role for ensuring long-term competitiveness of producing companies. It is often difficult for practitioners, to choose the optimal approach for modelling existing uncertainties in a meaningful way. This contribution provides a guideline for classification of uncertain information and fuzzy data based on a flowchart and proposes suitable modelling methods for each characterized uncertainty. In addition, a measure for modelability, the degree to which an uncertain or fuzzy parameter can be modelled, is proposed. The method is based on a literature review comprising a discussion of the terms uncertainty and fuzziness.
