Summary/Abstract: The diversity of approaches and definitions of decision support systems (DSS) proposed in scientific literature is determined by the nature of management problems, set goals as well as chosen approaches to achieve these goals. Summarizing the results of the analysis of the factors that determine the role of DSS, it is defined as an informative computerized system, which provides thorough and full information necessary to set, analyze, evaluate and make the right choice of alternatives. It also provides a possibility to make purposeful development of prepared information reports in order to choose the most rational means and measures to neutralize specific problems of management. Summarizing the structures of DSS presented in scientific literature, a typical structure of system consists of the following components: Dialogue Generation and Management System, Data Base Management System, Model Base Management System, Knowledge-Based Management System. A significant element of the conceptual structure of DSS is the decision-maker. Special literature proposes different approaches to analyze the diversity of DSS. Generally, the most acceptable approach is the essential or conceptual approach whose application allows differentiating the DSS according to the object. Summarizing DSS presented in scientific literature, the most rational list of DSSs from the standpoint of intelligent support specification consists of: individual decision support, group decision support, negotiation support and expert system. Detailed analysis of these systems from the viewpoint of their ultimate goal, proposal initiative, leading direction, main dialogue direction and other viewpoints allowed defining the main characteristics of DSSs. Considering the defined characteristics of DSSs, it is rational to integrate systems thereby increasing efficiency of the support for their user. Application of intelligent DSS generated following this principle creates preconditions making a rational decision by providing comprehensive, real-time information, creating conditions to integrate and interpret information. In order to create an effective DSS for strategic planning in public institutions, it is expedient to apply system integration principle. The essential factors determining the requirements for strategic planning DSS in public institutions are as follows: suggested principle model of strategic planning, suggested implementation method of its components and type of relation between the implementers. Therefore, the characteristics of strategic planning tasks with emphasis on the type of relation between the actions of individuals participating in the process allowed revealing the specifics of the need for intelligent support for strategic planning tasks in institutions. Basically, all strategic planning tasks are solved on a few institutional levels. Te essence of the proposed methods and models for solution of strategic planning tasks determines a complex character of intell
