Journal Title: Економічні інновації - Year 2018, Vol 20, Issue 2
Abstract
Topicality. In the context of economic and organizational transformations, the fulfilment of the stevedoring activity by national maritime terminals was considerably more complicated and proved to be prone to the impact of unpredictable market phenomena, faced with the need to maintain a competitive level and the ability to manage these processes in the new environment. Such variability of the market environment in the provision of stevedoring services requires appropriate methods for managing marine terminals, the application of approaches based on the principles of adaptability, flexibility of both management decisions and the organizational structure of the management system of stevedoring activities. Aim and tasks. The existing situation in this area of activity was analysed, the conclusion was reached on the existence of an acute need of methodological support formation for the introduction of the newest forms of management in the national sphere of stevedoring services’ provision, which was the purpose of this article. Research results. In the article, the adaptation mechanisms of the regulation system of stevedoring activity at sea port terminals have been formulated and proposed for use in the practice, and a list of conditions for application of the principle of stevedoring management adaptability has been formed. During the study, attention is focused on the analysis of the concept of adaptability and the application of this approach to the management of terminals. Taking into account the fact that the modern sea terminals on which the stevedoring activity takes place, it should be attributed to complex stochastic, dynamic and open systems that at different times can be in different states, it is proposed to represent them as a structurally complex mass service system. An approach to the optimization of adaptive management, based on methods of mass service theory, which also allows one of the main risks in the operator's activity to be assessed, namely, the risk of its destruction as a result of drop in expected turnover of goods has been proposed in the article. Conclusions. The mechanism of finding a management decision for obtaining the desired level of competitiveness by stevedoring companies per distributing cargo flows between competing port operators at terminals located at different ports, and based on the determined profit of each operator of the port terminal received during the planned period. Since the quality of the port terminal operator depends essentially on the choice of the management type of its organizational management structure, which is a complex scientific problem, the decision of this problem has been offered in the article by using the research of operations methods and economic-mathematical modelling.
