Introduction: A higher level of specialization in various disciplines and technologies typical for the participants of modern investment and construction (development) projects creates the need for the advanced project management models. Decision support systems and tools for communication and organization of joint activities are the mandatory components for the efficient project management. Purpose-designed information systems allow to computerize such project management function as scheduling. However, the optimum decision is still found on the basis of personal assessment by decision makers. At the same time, as competition in the construction industry increases, the need for decision support systems to optimize investment and construction activities in the environment of multi-objective optimization becomes evident. Methods: The findings of DSS development projects in the construction industry have been used. The studies have been based on system integration approach to engineering, method of successive concession and the procedure for a search of the satisfactory values meeting STEM criteria under given weights. Results: Principles of development and functioning, architecture and organization and process aspects of DSS for scheduling under multi-objective optimization. Discussion: Integrated DSS capable for multi-objective optimization of the schedules has been proposed.
