LOGISTICS OF MATERIAL FLOWS IN SHIP REPAIR PRODUCTION PROJECTS

Abstract

A logistics system is a complexly organised, integrated economic system consisting of interconnected links in a single process of managing material and related flows. Project management in logistics systems uses the application of project management methods and models in the process of designing logistics systems and managing changes in them, as well as solving the problems of managing resource flows in logistics systems. The design, creation and management of logistics systems is accompanied by their presentation as an integral set of elements in certain relationships and connections between them. The logistics system should meet the goals of their design and management. The article outlines elements of the mechanism of logistics management of material costs of ship repair production. Efficient use of the company's resources is possible through the systematic development of a system of organisational and technical measures to reduce costs. All cost-cutting measures are closely interrelated and comprehensive, reflecting the relationship of each of them with the entirety of ship repair production elements. The paper substantiates the production features of a ship repair enterprise and analyses the factors that determine the level of costs. It identifies types of ship repair works and stages of preparation of vessels for repair, which makes it possible to plan costs for formation of the production programme. This text presents the production structure of a ship repair enterprise and discusses the peculiarities of product costing. Ship repair companies use planned, indicative, estimated (technical) and reporting costings. This makes it possible to develop a mechanism for managing the costs of ship repair projects and the production process of a ship repair company.
