Abstract

Many mining and metallurgical companies are major players not only in the domestic but also in the international market. In this area, expensive equipment is used, specialists with unique knowledge and competencies are often involved in the production, processing and sale process, and prices for raw materials and finished products in the world market are constantly fluctuating, and resources for production, including quarries for the development of minerals, have its limits of implementation. Ineffective planning and budgeting management can lead to a decrease in the financial performance of the organization and even negatively affect the economy of the entire country. The relevance of this article is related to the need to solve the problems of improving these processes, which can be successfully solved by introducing information technologies. The purpose of this study is to identify the key requirements for an information system to support planning and budgeting processes in mining and metallurgical companies, as well as to determine which solutions are advisable to use depending on the criticality of certain requirements for a particular enterprise. Using the Karl Wiegers method, the key requirements for an information technology solution for planning and budgeting in a mining and metallurgical holding were formulated and classified. A comparative analysis of two types of solutions, most often used to automate the investigated activities, is carried out, the results of which allow determining the most optimal approach to improving the planning and budgeting processes in mining and metallurgical companies.
