Abstract

The article presents the results of a theoretical study relating the efficiency of indicators of road traffic vehicles as the basis for solving a new problem connected with development of a model needed to correct the effort measurements of the participants in the international supply chains. The necessity for application of the proposed recommendations to the analysis and control of transportation services has been justified. The distinctive feature of the given recommendations consists in providing an objective account of transportation services based on the travelling time factor which ensures comparability of the indicators. We also achieved our research goal to simulate the changes in the transportation services and the amount of transport operations depending on the values of the given coefficient. The basic principles of our study include the method of substitution chains, including the index and comparative approaches. The objective of the research was to develop a flow chart and algorithm in order to calculate the correction coefficient and transportation volumes. The given algorithm was used to test the proposed recommendations in the form of numerical simulations applied to the road vehicle enterprises in Saratov region. Application of the recommended indicators provide the advantages relating the starting points of the analysis based on the scale and performance characteristics. It is proposed to form the "time window" as a tool in regulating the pace and distribution of responsibility in the supply chain.
