Investment projects in logistics systems

Abstract

Scientists have researched and scientifically substantiated the significant effect of the use of project management tools on all business entities and on the country's economy as a whole. At the same time, in modern conditions active economic development and turbulence environment, lead to the fact that considerable attention should be given to the strategic line of conduct of enterprises. The strategy allows to take into account the capabilities of the enterprise, as well as investment projects in various strategic business areas. Despite the fact that many sources describe the process of the development of logistics systems through investment projects; in practice it is very difficult to implement. For the implementation of investment projects of the enterprise it is necessary to present this process in the form of a set of formalized procedures or in the form of step-by-step sequence of actions for choosing the best option for an investment project. This problem is especially relevant for logistics systems, because their activities are carried out in the form of many projects. Increasing the volume of investments and improving the efficiency of investment management in logistics systems is one of the fundamental conditions for reducing the duration of the production and sales cycle, which creates the preconditions for economic growth by accelerating the turnover of funds. The production potential of economic entities, their efficiency, and hence the sectoral and reproductive structure of all public production will largely depend on the investment projects, both at the micro and at the macro logistical level. Unsolved in practical terms of the problem of improving the investment process and management of investment activities in logistics systems, the need to develop a methodology for analyzing and modeling the investment activities of logistics systems in the context of the transformation of the economy, as well as insufficient coverage of this problem in domestic and foreign literature determined the relevance of the research topic.
