INTEGRATED DSS FOR STRATEGIC PLANNING IN PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS

The paper deals with a problem of support to the strategic planning decision-making in public institutions. In special literature there are various approaches proposed to what decision support system (DSS) is rational to use in management area. This diversity is determined by the nature of management problems, goals and the chosen approaches for achieving the goals. In order to prepare the approaches which are necessary to carry out the strategic planning in the institutions, the role of the DSS was revealed, the structure of the system was defined, and the variety of the DSS was systematized. Besides, the factors which predetermine the requirements for the DSS of strategic planning in the institutions were defined. According to these factors and the results of the research on theoretical potential of decision support, it is rational to apply a complex character of intelligent support to prepare alternatives and to make decisions of strategic planning in public institutions. The authors have based a solution with regard to the integrated DSS for the strategic planning.
