Functional Features of Logistic Activities of Machine-Building Enterprises
Abstract
The functional features of logistic activities of machine-building enterprises are defined on the basis of identification of factors influencing the efficiency of logistic activities and the criteria for evaluating the level of introduction of logistics. It is noted that the essence of the problem of introducing logistic activities into the practice of machine-building enterprises is that today’s manufacturers of machine-building products have almost no proper theoretical basis and practical experience in the use of the logistic system (in order to optimize costs and manage material, financial and information flows) by integrating individual parts of the logistic process into an efficient system and accounting the functional features of the logistic activities of machine-building enterprises. It is noted that the logistic system is an adaptive and feedback-enabled system that performs certain logistical functions. It usually consists of several subsystems and has well-developed links with the external environment. The application of logistic system in the enterprises of machine-building complex will allow to integrate all the processes of the enterprise with minimal costs, while optimally adapting production processes to the external environment factors. Based on a carried out study to determine the functional features of the logistic activities of machine-building enterprises, on the basis of identification of factors influencing the efficiency of logistic activities and criteria for evaluating the level of introduction of logistics, it is concluded that the main direction of improving the efficiency of logistic activities of machine-building enterprises is to use a systematic approach to the introduction of logistics in the production and economic activities of machine-building enterprises based on the use of a complex of logistic subsystems.
