Since the first report on the Circular Economy (CE) appeared in 2013, there has been an explosion of interest in
the subject by society and the business world. Thus, a base of academic literature has been developed, seeking
the establishment of principles that serve as a theoretical foundation for the concept of CE. Governments demand
to know how organizations are evolving in the transition towards the new production model. However, despite
the efforts of researchers and companies to develop effective measurement systems, it is not easy to decide which
aspects to measure, nor to determine the degree of intensity in which an organization implements the CE model.
The measurement proposals combine different methodologies that are costly and time consuming procedures. We
propose a comprehensive minimum cost consensus model for large scale group decision making, in which the
initial experts’ preferences are automatically adjusted to obtain the measurement and cost of indicators, so that
they might agree on the measurements implemented. The main aim of this research is not only to provide a
quick, useful and correct method for measuring the CE, but also to show its correctness, advantages and usefulness
by comparing its performance with a real case.
