One means of fast tracking the service time for August 11 2017 bank customers is through the use of self-servicing machines such as automated teller machine Accepted September 14 2017 Available online ATM . Total service cost expected waiting time in queue ATM utilization and percentage of September 14 2017 customer loss are some of the performance indices that are used to evaluate the service rendered Keywords by a bank s ATM. This study proposes a framework for evaluating the performance of ATM Automated teller machine by integrating queuing model and Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Queuing theory Solution TOPSIS methodology. Applicability of the framework was tested using practical Performance index data obtained from four banks in Nigeria. It was observed that the average ATM usage in the TOPSIS study area was less than 50 . The TOPSIS results identified Bank A as the best ranked bank. In addition the results obtained revealed that banks with two ATM were ranked higher than banks with more than two ATM. 2018 Growing Science Ltd. All rights .
