Dear readers! This is the fifth issue of the LOGISTICS journal, dedicated to the current challenges of modern logistics.
Dear readers! We present you a new issue of the magazine dedicated to current logistics issues.
Annotation. The prospects of using the concept and technology of data transmission networks and the physical Internet in logistics are shown. The possibilities of using reference network models of data transmission and processing for logistics business processes of the physical Internet, in particular the OSI, TCP/IP, OLI and NOLI models, are considered. The levels of reference network models are analyzed and their adaptation to the coordination of logistics operations in multi-layered supply chains is proposed.
Annotation. The article presents the results of an analysis of several models and approaches utilizing artificial intelligence in combat zones to provide material support to troops. Additionally, the author proposes a model mechanism for providing logistical support to troops using artificial intelligence.
Key words. Logistics support, artificial intelligence, model mechanism for troop support, military logistics, modeling, forecasting, efficiency.
Annotation. The purpose of the study is to comprehensively analyze modern approaches to integrating the principles of green logistics into supply chain management, and develop practical recommendations for their effective implementation.
Annotation. The article examines the specifics of organizing logistics processes for vaccine delivery, which are carried out at four levels of the pharmaceutical cold chain. The article discloses the requirements for equipment for the transportation and storage of vaccines, and describes the means and procedure for monitoring temperature conditions during their delivery.
Annotation. The article reveals the essence of prescriptive (prescriptive) analytics and the methods by which it is presented. The relevance of the topic is due to the need for effective decisions by commercial enterprises in the field of mainline transportation, due to their rise in price. An example of the formulation of a logistical problem and a way to solve it, aimed at reducing transportation costs under existing restrictions, is presented.
Key words. Mathematical optimization, prescriptive analytics, mainline transportation, capacity, transportation optimization, cost minimization.
Abstract. In the context of global economic changes and growing competition in the energy sector, traditional fuel transportation management methods are becoming inefficient. The study aims to identify key factors for successful implementation of digital technologies in fuel logistics and develop practical recommendations for optimizing this process. The findings will be valuable for transportation company specialists and researchers in the field of logistics digitalization.
Key words. Аutomation, security, logistics, monitoring, transportation, fuel, management, digitalization.
Annotation. The article definition of the concept «Supply Chain Control Tower – SCCT» is given. The evolution of the Control Tower concept from CT1.0 to CT4.0 and the need to integrate control centers into the structure of modern multi-party supply network (MPSN) are shown. The main components of the MPSN information technology platform are considered. The ST – Control Tower Value Matrix 2024 vendor rating matrix is presented. The necessity of forming intelligent SCCT is substantiated and their main functionality and advantages of use in digital supply chains are considered.
Annotation. The article examines the impact of optimization of logistics chains on the competitiveness of an enterprise. Analyzing the multifaceted effects of logistics optimization, the author applies a modified view of resources integrated with the theory of dynamic capabilities, as well as a mixed method combining quantitative analysis of operational efficiency indicators with a qualitative assessment of strategic advantages.
Annotation. The article reflects problems associated with medication losing its properties when the temperature exceeds acceptance criteria. Main potential risk factors of the cold chain are analyzed. Options for their minimization by means of introducing new information technologies are proposed.
Key words. Immunobiological drugs, quality assurance, cold chain, risks, automated quality management system, e-learning, Internet of Things systems, blockchain technology, Artificial Intelligenсе.
Annotation. Purpose of this article is to application of functional formula method for seeking of optimum integration mechanism variant in accordance with cooperation level of supply chain particitants. For solvation of this problem was used researching cooperation. Of manufacturing, transportation, trade enterprice, store’s operators inside different forms of cooperative activities was solved the multistep taskof distribution integration mechanism optimization.
