Abstract

This paper defines critical capabilities of decision support software and then highlights superior analytic and user interface features of the 32 commercially available decision analytic software packages. The packages provide a mix of capabilities related to problem structuring, value matrices, multi-attribute utility analysis, decision trees and influence diagrams. First, we define the process of decision making in organizations. Next, we summarize the 32 software packages that were reviewed. Then the evaluation structure and superior design features are presented and discussed.
