The article explores the features of information and analytical support for managerial decision-making in industrial enterprises during the era of strategic transformation (Industry 4.0 and the digital economy). It is demonstrated that the modern Russian metallurgical industry is undergoing a fundamental shift in its business paradigm, necessitating the adoption of new tools for data collection, storage, and processing. Special attention is paid to the role of integrated systems in enhancing the effectiveness of strategic transformations and achieving key performance indicators (KPIs) during the digitalization of production processes. The article presents examples of successful implementation of new methods (Severstal, NLMK, PJSC MMK), examines the main challenges of implementation (import substitution, data integration, staff adaptation), and outlines future prospects (automation, integration of information technology systems, artificial intelligence). It is recommended to initiate digital transformation through pilot projects, the development of a data strategy, and the gradual implementation of an integrated digital platform.
