Abstract
The article reveals the specifics of participation of industrial companies of the railway transport of Ukraine in the process of functioning of innovation-oriented industrial logistic clusters. The interpretation of the concept of a cluster and definition of its main components has been studied. The problems and prospects of development of industrial companies of railway transport of Ukraine have been studied. It has been determined that the new model of economic development of industrial companies of the railway industry should be based on interaction of all the participants involved at all stages of the life cycle of creating innovative products by forming innovation-oriented industrial-logistic clusters. It has been noted that innovation engineering centers that initiate and develop innovations and coordinate the entire innovative process of product creation are the core of innovation-oriented industrial logistic clusters.The main problems that hinder the use of the cluster approach in management of regional systems in Ukraine have been revealed and active participation of the state in creation of conditions for development of innovations, cooperation of the state, science and business and creation of the national innovation infrastructure has been justified.
Highlights
The fundamental changes in the world economy, caused by the rapid development of globalization processes, contribute to the formation of a new innovation and technological structure, creation of new structures in the world and European markets both in the areas of industry and transport sector
The cost of the product life cycle, rather than the low cost of the cars is the determining factor in EU countries when making decisions on procurement of Ukrainian rolling stock [23]. This necessitates the use of a new model of economic development for industrial companies of the railway industry, which should be based on the interaction of all participants involved at all stages of the life cycle of creation of the innovative products, including designers, innovators and endusers
Based on the study performed, one may conclude that integrated management of the processes of innovation activity: production, transfer and application of the scientific knowledge, creation of science-based technologies on their basis, as well as the possibility of innovative development of the railway transport of Ukraine to a large extent depends on the level of the innovation activity of industrial companies of the railway transport
Summary
The fundamental changes in the world economy, caused by the rapid development of globalization processes, contribute to the formation of a new innovation and technological structure, creation of new structures in the world and European markets both in the areas of industry and transport sector. The cost of the product life cycle, rather than the low cost of the cars (the competitive advantage of domestic producers) is the determining factor in EU countries when making decisions on procurement of Ukrainian rolling stock [23] This necessitates the use of a new model of economic development for industrial companies of the railway industry, which should be based on the interaction of all participants involved at all stages of the life cycle of creation of the innovative products, including designers, innovators and endusers. Such an increase in the integration processes in the field of production is closely related to the cluster approach. Ukraine has all the bases for developing the market for the scientific products, but one has to take into account the lack of links between science, education, business, government and civil society institutions
