Decision Analysis

The Decision Analysis SIG (DASIG) is a network of managers, consultants and academics interested in and committed to the application, dissemination and better understanding of decision analysis.

The group define and understand decision analysis as a set of sound approaches to structuring and analysing decisions under uncertainty and conflicting objectives.

Their primary aim is to provide a forum where members can discuss new developments in the discipline, expand their understanding and share experiences of implementing decision analysis.

The group strives to be inclusive and attract cross-sectoral representation from central and local government, private industry and the voluntary sector.

Past events have covered a range of topics including ‘good practice in decision making’, ‘structuring decisions’, and ‘optimisation for informed decision making’ as well as application areas such as the energy sector and the public sector.

Please contact Dr Nadia Papamichail using the form if you are interested in organising a workshop or event.

Join us for our next event:

ORS Annual Conference OR68: From Data to Decisions

8–10 September 2026
University of Nottingham, United Kingdom

 

If you work as a data analyst, urning messy data into insight, building dashboards, running queries, or supporting decisions with clear evidence, OR68 offers a space to see how that work connects to the bigger picture. Through the Analytics Network, you’ll find practical conversations that link everyday analysis, visualisation, and reporting to real decisions and outcomes across sectors.
