Annotation. The article examines the problems of managing transport and logistics processes in conditions of uncertainty of changes in factors that determine the external environment. The authors proposed an approach that involves describing a mechanism for identifying the impact of atypical risks on the processes of an enterprise participating in the formation of cargo flow based on the formation of a metagraph model of the occurrence and joint impact of risks. Subsets of primary and secondary risks are identified.
The subject of the article is the transformation of the role and importance of logistics in modern international economic relations with an emphasis on the functionality of warehousing in modern supply chains. The transformation of warehouse logistics goals in integrated supply chains, changes in their geographical directions, methods and specifics of work in modern conditions based on the use of the Internet and computer technologies, as well as various approaches in the methodology for evaluating their effectiveness are investigated.
In the situation of the dominant position in the import-export communication of railway transportation, the primary role is assigned to the work with the life cycle of rolling stock when cars are on the company's sidings.
The process analytics algorithm described by the author of the article allows for express assessment of operations in the field of industrial logistics and the formation of economic justification of initiatives using infographics.
Annotation. This article is devoted to changes in the model of interaction between participants in logistics business processes under anti-Russian economic sanctions. Based on the analysis of scientific publications on interaction models and interviews with experts in the field of logistics, a model of interaction between participants in logistics business processes is presented, which includes new participants in business processes, revision of relations with current partners, risks and a system of financial support for logistics business processes under sanctions.
