Abstract
Currently, in some areas the costs of materials handling, work in process and finished products transported from a supplier to an end consumer make up 60-70 % of all production costs. In that regard, the reduction of these costs is a major economic problem. The purpose of this article is to clarify the concept of based on the use of a systems approach and the establishment of a management place in its composition. The functioning of this system takes place in a varying external environment, which does not always allow the system to achieve its goals. To neutralize them, in accordance with the system analysis, the system of formation and movement of material flow must be completed with a control system. Taking into account the latter, the author suggests that the logistics system should consist of controlling and controllable subsystems. The latter is intended to provide processes for the formation and movement of material resources, work in progress and finished products transported from a supplier to an end consumer. The managing subsystem is intended to optimize logistic processes, ensure the delivery of material flow available in the required range, amount and quality at the right place and time with minimum costs of resources. In addition, the control system solves issues related to the movement of information and finance. The contour of logistics management is offered as a control subsystem, which functions within the existing enterprise control system at all levels: strategic, tactical, and operational.
