Abstract: Abstract Improvement productivity in business and in day-to-day life IT (information technology) applications is becoming the most dominating field. As per the business point of view, the success or failure of a business organisation mostly depends on IT (information technology). In this point of view, software project selection is an important issue for many organisations. Sometimes, in product development scenario, inappropriate software selection cannot meet the balance between the input investments and the expected results. In this chapter, we present an analytical model which is based on multi-criteria decision-making approach for selection of appropriate software project using AHP (analytical hierarchy process) and TOPSIS (technique for order preference by similarity of ideal solution) models. Additionally, it is also defining the optimum order among software with prospecting their competency measured by sensitivity analysis in combination with subjective factor and objective factors.
