The Main Scientific and Practical Directions and Priorities of Management and Development of the Digital Economy at the Enterprises of Modern Shipbuilding

Abstract

Theoretical reference: The article outlines some of the main theoretical and empirical aspects of studying the process of digitalization and human capital management of industrial economic entities, including considering the main structural elements of human capital formation/functioning, and the synergistic effect of various structural elements of human capital. Method: The article discusses some main analytical methods for assessing the effectiveness of digitalization processes, including the market capitalization method, a method for assessing intellectual capital based on average annual return on assets (ROA), and a method for estimating the cost of human resources based on computational and analytical indicator of information productivity. Results and Conclusion: The article discusses results around trends in digital transformation for shipbuilding companies and conclusions that the digital economy determines the new role of human resources and capital and that people remain a key success factor for digital enterprises. Implications of research: The research helps outline the main directions and priorities of human resource management and digital economy development at modern shipbuilding enterprises. Originality and value: The research provides a comparative analysis of theoretical and empirical aspects of digitalization and human capital management in the context of the shipbuilding industry, examining computational methods for evaluation. This contributes new perspectives and analysis specific to this industry context.
