Popis: The purpose of the article is to present the author’s approach to the study of information management when making managerial decisions by public administration bodies. In this paper, information management is consistently considered as an object, subject and method of information management. By the example of the content and correlation of such concepts as data and information, information and knowledge, the main obstacles to the transition of the state from the information economy to the digital economy are shown. The hypothesis is formulated that effective information management does not so much contribute to the formation of the added value of management processes, as it creates the potential for obtaining additional value of a management decision as an information product.Materials and methods. The research is based on the analysis of the processes of informatization of society and the state, as well as the analysis of the possibilities of information management for building a digital infrastructure and effective interaction of the subjects of the digital economy. Various aspects of information management are disclosed in accordance with the “subject-object-subject” and “subject-object-object” models. The problems of determining the quantity and quality of information are revealed in comparison with the attributive, functional-cybernetic and semiotic concepts of information. The information base of the research was made up of the results of scientific research in the field of decision-making in public administration and methodological approaches to information management used in science.Results. The main risks and problems of information management in decision-making by public administration bodies were identified. It is determined that knowledge becomes an economic resource not at the stage of its production, but at the stage of use. This resource allows you to create the added value of a management solution as an information product. It is proved that the role of the state in the dissemination and use of knowledge is provided by the unconditional desire of the individual to produce new knowledge. In addition, it is shown that for the transition to the digital economy, the state needs to create an information infrastructure in which openness and transparency of data are combined with equal opportunities for individuals in the economy (inclusive economy).Conclusion. Information management is a significant factor in the transition of the state from an information economy to the digital one. The simple accumulation of information and knowledge cannot be a guide for the transition to the digital economy. Information management from the perspective of creating and using additional information value will avoid the risk of mechanical informatization and uncontrolled digitalization. The state activities in this direction should be responsible and consistent. The volume of information increases as a result of the individual’s desire to produce new knowledge, but the social value of knowledge increases as a result of the effective impact of the state on the development of information infrastructure and the diffusion of information technologies. Thus, the realization of the potential of the additional value of information and its scaling on the basis of state-supported platform tools will allow for the transition from the information economy to the digital economy.
