The use of an IT system in the decision-making process

The issue of choosing the best solution from a set of considered decision variants, which best meets the requirements formulated by the decision-maker, is often a difficult and time-consuming task in engineering practice, e.g., due to the multi-faceted nature of the analyzed problem. According to the author, the computer implementation of computational algorithms for selected variant assessment methods, which allows for obtaining aggregated assessments of the considered variants, can significantly contribute to improving the course of the decision-making process within a specific decision situation. The study presents a supporting IT tool that enables the prioritization of various types of variant solutions.According to [1], a decision is the result of a decision-making process that takes place in all areas of human life, and its goal is to make a choice (to make a decision). The decision-making process does not always lead to a decision. It constitutes a group of logically related mental or computational operations leading to the solution of a decision problem by choosing one of the possible variants of action. (…)
