This paper aims to obtain a minimum fuzzy assignment cost for a fuzzy assignment problem by using fuzzy branch and bound technique. Without transforming the fuzzy assignment problem into a corresponding crisp assignment problem a solution procedure to assign different resources to different activities is proposed to attain the fuzzy optimal cost. In this paper for comparing fuzzy numbers a ranking function in terms of parametric form is used. To showcase the proposed method an example is discussed and a comparison is made with a existing method.
