Abstract
The variants of the organization of logistics activities have been considered for small and medium-sized businesses. Thus, we have proposed an approach to the organization of the Russian transport services market using the principles of electronic commerce. This involves the development of a digital service - a transport market place based on a railway carrier with the involvement of all professional participants in the transport market. It will create a single transport and information space and cargo owners will be able to organize logistics in one «digital window». The use of a digital service will reduce the share of the transport component in the final cost of shippers’ products, and logistics operators will have a new channel for promoting transport services. We have defined the experience of creating modern digital services, the architecture of the transport marketplace and the requirements for its functionality. A graphic-analytical model has been developed for the independent organization of logistics by shippers in the transport marketplace and using the «digital forwarder» service. We have considered the algorithm of interaction between contractors - professional logistics operators and shippers in the planning of cargo transportation in the transport marketplace applying block chain technology - SMART contracts. A calculation method has been proposed to determine the economic effects of a railway carrier in the successful implementation of a transport marketplace.
