Logistics control of the resources flow in energy-saving projects: Case study for metallurgical industry

Abstract

The multilevel model for the formation and assessment of resource flows of a metallurgical enterprise is presented, which, at the logistics positions, reconcile the enterprise flow processes at all management levels, providing procedures for regulating the parameters of material and financial flows due to parametric and structural coordination in the short period of time and system coordination and adaptation of goals in the long term period. Drawing on the theory of logistics, it is possible to define the resource flow in project management as an aggregate of the enterprise’s own and attracted resources, considering in the process of interconnected and interdependent changes and movements carried out to achieve the objectives of the project. Optimization models of rational options selection for attracting additional resources, which allow implementing energy-saving projects under conditions of suspending finances at definite time periods due to a change in the project implementation schedule are described.
