In this paper, the authors’ research work is focused on uncertainty analysis implementation in the developed DSS for transportation means’ maintenance processes performance. Thus, in the Introduction section, the transportation means’ maintenance processes issues and the uncertainty problem are described. Later, there is briefly literature overview in the research area discussed. In the next Section, the expert system for means of transport maintenance processes performance is also investigated. Following this, the uncertainty analysis is developed and the examples of expert system implementation are given. The work ends up with summary and directions for further research.

W artykule autorzy skupili się na analizie niepewności danych w opracowanym systemie wsparcia decyzyjnego procesów utrzymania w stanie zdatności środków transportu. We wprowadzeniu problem niepewności oraz zagadnienia utrzymania w stanie zdatności środków transportu zostały omówione. Następnie, przedstawiono krótki przegląd literatury z badanego obszaru. W kolejnym kroku, przedstawiono system ekspertowy wspierający proces decyzyjny w badanym obszarze. Pozwoliło to na opracowanie analizy niepewności oraz jej implementację w systemie ekspertowym. Pracę kończy podsumowanie i wskazanie kierunków dalszych prac badawczych.
