Multi-criteria model for the development of industrial logistics

Abstract

Development of the industrial manufacturing logistics is associated with the need to solve many problems that affect the main technological units, internal and external transportation, as well as the industrial enterprise management system. The effectiveness of the solution of each of these tasks separately is traditionally evaluated by criteria, which, as a rule, conflict with the criteria of the effectiveness of other tasks and may even contradict the strategic goals of the organization. Modern logistics solutions are based on the achievement of a global economic criterion. However, the practical implementation of such general decisions is limited by the complexity of forming concrete actions based on them. In addition, traditional logistics solutions do not adequately meet the requirements of the concept of sustainable development, as they are poorly oriented towards environmental and social criteria. The developed multi-criteria model is a combination of alternative logistics solutions and criteria for their evaluation. The procedure for assessment and choosing the best combination of logistic decisions is based on a combination of multi-criteria decision-making methods. Application the developed model will reduce the costs of designing and implementing logistics solutions, as well as ensure the achievement of the sustainable development goals of an industrial enterprise. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
