This paper presents the pyrepo-mcda Python package upgrade with the implementation of the Preference Vector Method (PVM) multi-criteria method. This upgrade extends the scope of multi-criteria decision analysis offered by this package. Several advantages of the PVM method, such as the reduction of the participation of decision-makers, the possibility of giving individual preference vectors, and the possibility of modification and further development, are in the interest of decision-makers in various multi-criteria decision analysis problems, particularly in the sustainability assessment.
