Methods of Logistic Infrastructure Formation for Enterprises Manufacturing Bottled Water

Abstract

The modern post-industrial level of development of social-economic relations implies the primacy of services,intensification of scientific-technical progress, as well as the integration of economic operators, including in thesphere of production. Functioning of the industrial enterprises is impossible without a developed logisticsinfrastructure, the formation of which is connected with the adoption of managerial decisions on the compositionof its elements and their geographic location. Decision-making process on the composition and quantity ofinfrastructure objects should be based on the mathematical modeling. In today's economy, it is vitally importantto the formation of the logistics infrastructure of enterprises, oriented to meet the demand of end users. Inparticular, this area is the production of bottled drinking water, which is relatively new for Russia. The bottleddrinking water market is one of the fastest-growing in Russia, and water is a world strategic resource. Tooptimize the process of formation of the logistics infrastructure of enterprises for the production of bottleddrinking water is possible by application of the principles of logistics. The above determines the importance ofthe topic of the issue, its theoretical orientation and practical significance. Multivariate analysis is a tool thatreveals the relationship between a number of external and internal factors and the composition of objectslogistics infrastructure. Based on these factors through multivariate regression analysis were constructedmathematical model for determining the composition of the elements of the logistics infrastructure.
