Abstract:
This study attempts to applythe TOPSIS method of Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) forthe software selection process in the law industry. The paucity of literature on Software selection in the law firms in the Indian Context is one of the reasons behind selecting the area, which is one of the growing industries in today’s context. Primary data was collected from interviewing 50 Indian law firmsfor optimal selection of softwareout of 3 alternatives in the practicing Industry. The results are based on the analysis of their responses. The findings can likely be used as a baseline for an organization to strategize software selection activities. Finally, the main findings are about the selection of software by giving proper weight s to the criteria and score based on some selected criteria.
