<![CDATA[Indonesia is a country with a high level of disaster vulnerability, thereby requiring an objective, measurable, and operationally standardized selection mechanism for members of the Rapid Response Team (SRC). However, the selection process for SRC members at the BPBD of Central Tapanuli is still carried out without a structured assessment system, potentially resulting in personnel who do not fully meet operational field requirements. This study develops a Decision Support System (DSS) by applying a combination of the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS). Five criteria serve as the basis for assessment, namely physical condition, special skills, age, distance, and communication ability. AHP is used to determine the weight of each criterion with a valid consistency level (CR = 0.044), while TOPSIS is employed to generate alternative rankings based on their proximity to the ideal solution. The results indicate that candidates A2, A4, and A8 achieved the highest preference scores and are therefore recommended as the best candidates. The AHP–TOPSIS combination has proven effective in providing a systematic selection process.]]>
