Abstract
The choice of means of transport (selection of the type / branch of transport, size and number of means of transport) allows to limit the costs of transport operations to principals, which constitute a significant share of the price of the offered products. It also allows rationally adjusting the time and frequency of deliveries according to the expectations of the clients. The choice of transport technology (means of transport) was made in the aspect of transport commodality in the selected logistics chain, taking into account the existing connections between the points of cargo dispatch and collection, and existing transhipment points (logistics centers) and multi-level distribution. The article presents a method of selecting transport technology (selection of different types of external transport used in various transport modes and various types of internal transport) to carry out a given transport task in a selected logistics chain. The method allows to determine such a plan (determining the order of transport operations using properly selected means of transport), for which the total cost / time of transport is minimal.
