DEVELOPMENT OF INDICATORS FOR EVALUATING THE LEVEL OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT OF LOGISTICS ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURES

Abstract

The need to ensure the sustainable development of logistics organizational structures has been determined, because despite the significant development potential of the logistics sector in Ukraine and its importance for the state economy, the implementation of logistics operations is accompanied by a number of negative effects, which later manifests itself in problems of a social, ecological and economic nature. Modern trends regarding globalization and the determined course of Ukraine's integration into the EU actualize the need to reform transport and logistics systems in accordance with world standards, balancing urgent needs and protecting the interests of future generations, i.e. ensuring sustainable development.
 The analysis of scientific works showed that a large number of Ukrainian and foreign scientists pay attention to the study of sustainable development problems, as well as the theoretical and methodological foundations of implementing the principles of the concept in transport and logistics systems. However, a scientific gap is identified in terms of the need for improvement and further development of indicator systems for assessing the level of sustainable development of logistics organizational structures.
 A structural model of the hierarchical structure of the integral indicator was developed and, on its basis, using an additive formula, an indicator was formed to assess the level of balance of the sustainable development of logistics organizational structures. This balance is proposed to be evaluated according to the following aspects: territory, process and activity. The latter, in turn, should be consistent with the aspects that correspond to the following concepts of sustainable development: economic, ecological and social.
 We propose the indicators of sustainable development to be considered in the development of the concept of a balanced system of indicators, as a separate, fifth, component in the last, alongside such components as: satisfaction of needs (expectations of clients) and/or consumers; development of internal business processes; ensuring financial efficiency; staff training and development.
 Further research should lie in the plane of analysis and systematization of indicators that can be used as partial according to the proposed integral criterion.
