The protection of cultural heritage requires negotiations on many levels of social organization and involves representatives from very different environments and thus – often having different positions and ideals. Finding mechanisms to support decision-making in the area of heritage protection – especially contemporary objects – is one of the most urgent inquiry in the field. The article proposes a strategy and describes the first part of the research: creation of a tool based on an adequate model of an intelligent decision support system. The justification for the choice of the decision model (DRSA) was presented. It has been proposed to redefine 2 out of 10 criteria for assessing architectural objects: the con-text and place tradition (genis loci), so that it is possible to separate their semantic fields and thus avoid redundancy.
