Abstract:

The engineering-technological solution, from the point of view of the system-process approach, is the final stage of the management process, and from the position of the functional approach - the generalizing function of management. The purpose of their adoption and implementation is to achieve specific results of the implementation of plans for engineering and technological support for the implementation of production programs. Production programs are implemented in the condition of unpredictable changes in market conditions, it is also possible irrational processes and phenomena in the internal environment of enterprises. Engineering solutions are aimed at smoothing or eliminating these negative circumstances. It should be recognized that engineering and technological decisions are made scientifically and individually or collectively. The article reveals the methodological aspects of scientifically grounded selection and evaluation of the effectiveness of engineering and technological solutions, as well as specifying those aspects of the selection and evaluation of solutions requiring subjective, collegial processing of objective analytical data. It is substantiated that it is advisable to carry out the evaluation of the effectiveness of engineering and technological solutions based on the criterion of changes in the volume of implementation of the production program of the enterprise. It is also advisable that the assessment takes into account the time factor, and the level of expected income, the riskiness of the decision made and changes in the overall state of the enterprise’s development for the future. The proposed toolkit for scientifically-based selection and evaluation of the effectiveness of engineering and technological solutions is suitable to automate it. This can significantly rationalize management processes and reduce the time for making engineering and technological decisions.
