Measures to accelerate cargo delivery in the logistics chain

Rapid globalization and growing transportation volumes require the implementation of modern technologies and innovative solutions. Therefore, it is essential to effectively plan cargo transportation using various modes of transport. Freight transportation involves moving cargo from the point of production to the point of consumption. Objective: Freight transportation is driven by the need to continue and complete the production of industrial and agricultural products in circulation, after which they become ready for consumption. The proposed methodology for improving cargo delivery will ensure the calculation of all types of shipments, and will also reduce cargo delivery time. Method: The application of this methodology will help define the decision-making process for various plant processes. The proposed model is based on mathematical modeling of process dependencies for effective decision-making. To test the methodology for standardizing transportation times, it is necessary to organize them taking into account the delays of each technological process. The main reason for implementing standards is to expedite cargo delivery and properly distribute penalties between the railway and customers for late delivery. Scope of application of the results: Ultimately, effective freight flow management in rail transport requires a comprehensive approach aimed at improving all aspects of operation, which in turn will contribute to increased freight turnover and the development of the transport system. The effectiveness of this methodology allows for decision planning by studying factors affecting waiting times for ongoing technological processes to improve freight delivery. This model reduces wagon waiting times and allows for monitoring technological processes.
