OPTIMIZATION OF LOGISTICS MANAGEMENT TO INCREASE EFFICIENCY AT CONSTRUCTION SITES: RESEARCH OF BEST PRACTICES AND STRATEGIES

Abstract

Problem statement. Problem Statement. This article provides a detailed examination of the importance of optimizing logistics management on construction sites, which serves as a key element for enhancing overall efficiency and productivity in the modern construction industry. In the context of increasing competition and complexity of construction projects, effective logistics management becomes a critical success factor. Significant budget overruns and delays in the execution of construction projects are often associated with inefficient logistics management, especially due to rework, errors in material supply, and deficiencies in coordination among different project participants. This leads to unnecessary expenses, loss of time, and a decrease in the quality of work performed. The purpose of this study. The article focuses on the development and implementation of new strategies and methods for optimizing logistics on construction sites. This includes effective management of material resources, improvement of storage and delivery processes of construction materials, as well as the integration of various aspects of the logistics chain using modern information technologies. The research involves an in-depth analysis of existing literature and current practices on construction sites, which allows identifying the main problems and determining key challenges and opportunities for improvement. Methodology. To achieve the set goal, methods of system analysis, comparative studies, and modeling of logistics processes are used. Real cases from construction practice are analyzed, and surveys of experts and specialists in the fields of logistics and construction are conducted. Conclusions. The research results can be useful for improving logistics management processes on construction sites, which will contribute to reducing resource losses and increasing efficiency in the construction industry. The article also makes an important contribution to understanding the critical importance of logistics management in modern construction and offers specific recommendations and practical tools for its improvement. This can promote the competitiveness of construction companies and the development of the industry as a whole.
