Decision Support Systems. A Decision Support System, or DSS, is a specialized information system specifically designed to facilitate the decision making process in the operations of organizations. Compared to other types of information systems, a DSS is typically used when a problem is unstructured or when circumstances are difficult to predict. A DSS may include other types of systems. For example, a database management system (DBMS) is often part of a DSS in order to have access to the necessary data. However, a DSS is more than a DBMS since it provides a structure to facilitate the process of making decisions.
