The paper addresses the problem of optimal selection of components for personal computers in healthcare facilities under conditions of limited budget and multiple evaluation criteria. It is determined that traditional methods of component selection based on empirical experience or simple comparison of characteristics are insufficiently effective for making optimal decisions in multi-criteria choice situations. The application of Thomas Saaty’s adapted Analytical Hierarchy Process as an effective tool for mathematically grounded multi-criteria component selection is substantiated, taking into account technical compatibility, energy balance, and user priorities. Specific examples of applying the method when choosing a processor for a healthcare facility are provided, demonstrating four scenarios with different parameter priorities and three optimization modes. Experimental validation confirmed high algorithm accuracy in tracking user-defined priorities. An economic efficiency analysis of the developed system application has been conducted, demonstrating potential savings of up to 25% of the IT budget for healthcare institutions while maintaining the required performance level.
