Механізм формування та управління розвитком бізнес-інтегрованих структур у східних регіонах України

Abstract

At present, the problems of improving the management of cluster structures in the eastern regions of Ukraine, taking into account the European experience in accordance with modern challenges related to smart specialization, modernization of production and digitalization of organizational and managerial processes, are becoming especially relevant. In this regard, the purpose of the study is to substantiate the theoretical provisions, scientific and methodological approaches and develop practical recommendations for improving the mechanism of formation and management of business integrated structures of the eastern regions of Ukraine. The essence and content of the terms "business integrated structure", "development of business integrated structure", "mechanism for managing the development of business integrated structure" are specified. The international experience of development of cluster structures is analysed and generalized and offers concerning its possible application in industrial regions of Ukraine are given. Based on the generalization of research, analytical materials of research and consulting companies, regional development agencies, statistical analysis, the main barriers that hinder the effective economic development of the eastern regions of Ukraine. Strategic documents concerning the socio-economic development of Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts in terms of creating cluster associations were analysed. Methodical bases of logistical support of management of development of business integrated structures are defined. A comprehensive approach to evaluating the effectiveness of cluster formations is proposed and tested. Proposals on normative-legal regulation of cluster structures development in the national economy of Ukraine are given. The conceptual approach to the formation of the cluster as an element of the innovation infrastructure of industrial regions on the basis of smart specialization is substantiated. The organizational and economic mechanism of functioning of business integrated structures is improved and the algorithm of its realization on the example of the eastern regions of Ukraine is offered. It is proved that the development and implementation of the proposed algorithm for implementing the organizational and economic mechanism of business integrated structures (clusters) will create appropriate conditions for increasing the volume and quality of transport services, intensifying innovative development, as well as implementing a qualitatively new regional model of sustainable development that will meet modern management requirements. Implementation of the developed recommendations for improving the mechanism of formation and management of the development of business integrated structures in Donetsk and Luhansk regions will help to obtain a synergistic effect, the components of which are: economic effect ‒ increasing the level of investment attractiveness of territories; increase of receipts to budgets (regional, local) due to formation of qualitatively new model of regional economy, strengthening of competitive advantages of area and increase of economic capacity of territorial communities in the conditions of decentralization; increase in the volume of cargo transportation and cargo turnover of different types of transport; reduction of costs for the organization of logistics activities by reducing the transport component in the cost of services, reducing the time to perform customs procedures for clearance of goods; ensuring favorable institutional conditions for the functioning of the transport services market; social ‒ job creation and employment growth; ecological ‒ reduction of greenhouse gas emissions from transport due to optimization of transport flows; increasing the level of environmental safety.
