Organizational and economic support of logistics activities of machine-building enterprises

Abstract

The ways to build an effective organizational and economic mechanism for managing the logistics activities of machine-building enterprises are considered in the article. A theoretical definition of the concepts of logistics activity and logistics system are provided, taking into account their complexity and multidimensional nature. The concepts are defined taking into account the specifics of industrial enterprises. The development of the engineering sector of the national economy was analyzed. It was determined that the machine-building complex is in crisis, which is associated with the loss of links between production cooperation, and the need to enter the new markets of the European Union, the standards of which do not correspond to the quality indicators of the manufactured machine-building products. Accordingly, among the priorities of engineering enterprises, it is determined to ensure the renewal and modernization of production capacities, which is complicated by the financial and economic policies of the country as a whole. Therefore, ensuring the competitiveness of engineering enterprises depends on building effective organizational and economic mechanisms for operational activities. A key element of the operational activities of machine-building enterprises is logistics activities. Therefore, the issues of establishing the organizational and economic support of the logistics systems of the machine-building complex are of high relevance. The separate functions of logistics activity as the operational process of economic entities are defined in the article. Separate elements of logistics activity are described and structured, and defined as a single operating system. The algorithm for the building of the organizational and economic mechanism for providing the logistics system was determined taking into account the specifics of the machine-building complex.
