Abstract

The article is aimed at studying the principles as a basis for the scientific methodology of logistics management. Analysis of the literature has showed that effective logistics management should be based on a scientific methodology moving from knowledge to practical use of existing laws and developing on this basis principles, methods and mechanisms for the management of economic activities, aimed at achievement of the goals defined. The author, according to her own vision, claims that logistics management is a set of functions that are being implemented on the basis of system approach, development of an integrated management mechanism that would took into consideration the impact of external environment and would provide the relationship between goals and objectives in the context of a specific economic entity. It has been proven that scientific methodology of logistics management should be understood as the totality of principles, methods and tools in terms of logistics organization, which, based on both economic laws and examination of the factors influencing the logistics activities, would provide the scientifically sound management. The suggested process of the formation of logistics principles must include the four stages, which are described in the article. Prospects for further research in this area are systematization and standardization of the terminology used in logistics, in order to avoid inaccuracies and repeats of the definitions given by scientists.
