Introduction. The article is devoted to the study of the features of managerial decision-making in complex socio-economic systems in the context of fire and rescue units management. The article deals with the decomposition of the decision-making process into the main elements and provides a thematic analysis of each of them. The author's classification of decision-makers on the fire from among the main positions and non-regular officials of the garrison is presented. The tasks of the research are to analyze the current state of the basic conceptual apparatus of the theory of decision support in the management of fire protection units and to formulate the most general approach to the definition of the decision support process. Methods. The analysis of Russian- and English-language literary, normative and statistical sources of information on the topic under consideration is carried out. The result of the decomposition and synthesis of the analyzed information is tables, figures and diagrams, as well as explanations to them. The author also compares the approaches to decision-making from the Russian-language management theory with the results of empirical studies conducted abroad. Results and discussion. A theoretical review of the basic provisions of the theory of decision support with an appeal to the features inherent in the process of managing fire protection units is carried out. The author presents the results of a retrospective analysis of the development of approaches to the definition of the concepts of "decision support system" and "management support", as well as the definition of the term "support of decision making". Conclusions. Based on the results of the study, a hypothesis is formulated that at the stage of development of specialized decision support systems for decision makers, a synthesis between different approaches will remain. Keywords: decision support systems, management support, decision support, fire department management, complex socio-economic systems

The focus of a decision support system is much different from Management Information Systems (MIS) and data-based "decision support systems". Decision support systems, as defined by the authors, focus on decisions and decision makers, and on information. Technology is treated as a tool and data as the raw material. In many traditional systems the focus is on the technology, and the data is the "information", while decision makers are, to some extent, externalized.The purpose of the Forest Management Decision Support System (FMDSS) project is to develop a set of software tools for creating forest management decision support systems. This set of tools will be used to implement a prototype forest management decision support system for the Plonski forest, near Kirkland Lake, Ontario.There are three critical ingredients in building the FMDSS, these are: (1) knowledge of the decision making process, (2) knowledge of the forest, and (3) the functionality of underlying support technology. The growing maturity of the underlying technology provides a tremendous opportunity to develop decision support tools. However, a significant obstacle to building FMDSS has been the diffuse nature of knowledge about forest management decision making processes, and about the forest ecosystem itself. Often this knowledge is spread widely among foresters, technicians, policy makers, and scientists, or is in a form that is not easily amenable to the decision support process. This has created a heavy burden on the project team to gather and collate the knowledge so that it could be incorporated into the function and design of the system. It will be difficult to gauge the success of this exercise until users obtain the software and begin to experiment with its use.

This paper proposes TEA: a generic framework for decision making in web services, which integrates the environment (6 Ps) of decision making, the behaviors (6 Cs) of decision makers, and inner activities (another 6 Ps) of decision makers. This framework unifies what the decision makers can “eye” (the above-mentioned first 6Ps), should “think” (the above-mentioned another 6 Ps) and “act” (6 Cs), whenever making decisions in web services. The paper also examines interrelationships among the first 6 Ps, 6 Cs, and another 6Ps, and their influences on decision making in web services. The proposed approach will facilitate research and development of decision making and decision support systems in web services.

Stages of decision making done by the manager is a crucial stage. Given the resulting decisions affect the sustainability of the organization, then many managers use systems that can support the resulting decisions. This system is known as the decision support system, which applies to solving a problem, using methods such as ELECTRE, Promethee, SAW, TOPSIS. Using decision support systems makes it easy for decision-makers to add new data, change data and make decisions more efficiently. In this article, the method used is Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS).

People make decisions all the time. They make decisions alone; they make decisions together with others. Some fields have been focusing on the process of decision making and have attempted to help people make decisions. Psychologists, trainers, and organizational development consultants are aiming to develop decision- making theories and methodologies and train people to use them in business, economics, urban-planning, and more areas of management and personal life. Computer-based decision support systems emerge in various fields. These fields are mainly interested in the actual process: helping people make better decisions. This article is about an indirect use of decision-making methodology: we use it as a learning task. As technology can process large quantities of integrated information while presenting results in a visualize manner, technology was harnessed to aid decision makers in various ways. Decision support systems (DSS) have been used to present decision makers with all possible relevant knowledge so they can take into account as many variables as they can before making an informed decision.

Efficient logistics in urban areas is crucial for construction companies since building materials account for 30–40% of all construction costs and the space on site is highly constrained. To face these challenges, actions coming from both public and private decision-makers to find more sustainable solutions related to the distribution of building materials in urban areas become urgent. Although barely used in such contexts, can decision support systems be of support, and for who and for which purpose? This paper proposes a set of decision support systems addressing public and private decision-makers to improve the construction logistics and supply chain with evidence-based decision-making mechanisms. Those systems are, in particular, a public participatory geographical information system for determining the impact of policy measures, a consolidation center locator, a consolidation center planner, and an innovation measures selector. The paper explains how these decision support systems are settled and experimented from the analysis of pilot sites in European cities and in collaboration with the companies. Our diverse experiments demonstrate that data-driven decision-making is worth it to trigger thought on improvement measures for construction freight transport in urban area. We conclude that additional attention should be devoted to this specific sector.

The reception of journalists at the Waspada Daily Medan always went through several rigorous selections before being determined to be accepted as journalists at the Waspada Medan Daily. There are several criteria that must be possessed by each participant as a condition for becoming a journalist in the Daily Alert Medan. To get the best participants, the Waspada Medan Daily needed a decision support system. Decision Support Systems (SPK) are part of computer-based information systems (including knowledge-based systems (knowledge management)) that are used to support decision making within an organization or company. Decision support systems provide a semitructured decision, where no one knows exactly how the decision should be made. In this study the authors applied the VlseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje (VIKOR) as the method to be applied in the decision support system application. The VIKOR method is part of the Multi-Attibut Decision Making (MADM) Concept, which requires normalization in its calculations. The expected results in this study can obtain maximum decisions.Keywords: Journalist Acceptance, Decision Support System, VIKOR
