Abstract

The article investigates the concept of integrated management decision support in multi-domain operations based on a data-driven governance approach (using the Palantir platform as a model). Drawing on graph, vector-matrix, and probabilistic models, a methodology for the multi-criteria evaluation of decision-making effectiveness is applied. It establishes that integral management effectiveness relies on data integration and relevance, decision timeliness, and the system's resilience under conditions of degradation and information overload. The scientific novelty lies in the development of a system of analytical parameters for assessing management effectiveness. The research results can be utilized to improve defense planning and crisis response within the security and defense sector.
