If entities want to survive and prosper in the public sector under the current global and competitive environment, they have to change their way of thinking and managing. Efficiency evaluation based on multiple criteria is a more complicated option, but on the other hand, this evaluation gives more insight into the real state of public sector efficiency. The manuscript focuses on usage of one of MCDM methods-TOPSIS technique-as a tool for comprehensive evaluation in self-government in Slovakia. This method is applied on a sample of 276 municipalities of Trencin self-governing region. 8 criteria are used and their weight was calculated based on Equal importance method and Fuller triangle method with 25 experts from public sector. One of the results achieved is a fact that this kind of evaluation really depends on each indicator used (municipalities cannot focus only on one of them). It is possible to recommend TOPSIS technique for usage not only in public sector, but also in private sector as well. Its use is also conditioned by the appropriate selection of monitored indicators and also by weight determination, which significantly determines overall results.
