The aim of the study is to consider the concept of diversification in the context of foreign trade, to clarify the classification of types of foreign trade diversification, ways to assess the level and to conduct a mass assessment of the level of foreign trade diversification of countries. The justification of the undertaken topic is that the national economies of the modern world do not function autonomously, they are interconnected by trade, co-production, financial and migration flows, and following international integration, these relationships are only strengthening. Therefore, the disruption of foreign trade relations of countries can cause more problems, lower the level of their foreign trade diversification. However, despite of these, today the issue of foreign trade diversification is not sufficiently deeply studied, including ways to classify foreign trade diversification and assess its level. The research methodology includes methods for calculating indicators characterizing the level of diversification. For calculations, the values of indicators characterizing the annual volume of international trade of the countries of the world are used. The results of calculation of indicators of the level of foreign trade diversification according to statistical data on the volume of imports and exports of the world are presented. Choropleth maps of the level of foreign trade diversification of the world are created. Conclusions are made on the possibility and convenience of using indicators of foreign trade diversification.
The subject matter is the processes of managing the stakeholders of a project. The goal of the work is to develop a theoretical and methodological toolkit that will help rationalize the work with the stakeholders of a project. The objectives of the project are to improve the processes of managing the stakeholders of a project by analyzing the stakeholders of the project, creating a list of stakeholders, grouping stakeholders, identifying key stakeholders and building the reserve of project stakeholders. The methods used are the methods of strategic management in the project activity. The result of the study is modelling the process of managing the stakeholders of a project with the help of the Allfusion Process Modeller software, which will enable systematizing the information on the stakeholders of a project, forming the reserve of stakeholders and thereby reducing the risk of the project incompleteness. The first step of the model is the analysis of project documentation and the creation of a list of the stakeholders of a project. Further, with the help of the Mitchell model, the stakeholders of a project are grouped. Four key stakeholders are identified for the project, namelya customer, a project team, project performers, the future consumers of the project product. Contributions to the project are determined for each group of key stakeholders as well as incentives (benefits) that stakeholders receive from the project using the ASC model. Contributions and incentives are prioritized (by importance). Then the indicators for each contribution and incentive are determined and this information is recorded. The next step is to create a database of the stakeholders of a project, which enables systematizing information on the importance and the role of all stakeholders in the project. After dividing all the participants into three main categories, namely, the owner of the process or the manager, a key participant or a performer, an observer or important participant, they should be put in the project database. The given work presents the example of such a database organized in a table. The final step of the model for managing the stakeholders is building the reserve of the project stakeholders and updating project documentation. Conclusions. Improving the processes of managing the stakeholders of a project is of great importance in the current context as the impact of stakeholders on the project is growing every year and ignoring it will be a big mistake of the project manager.
Innovative technologies and scientific solutions for industries. 2017. No. 2 (2) 138 UDC 338.984 M. TURKINA, O. SKACHKOV ECONOMIC EFFICIENCY OF MODERNIZING THE EQUIPMENT FOR THERMAL POWER PLANTSThe subject matter of the study is the economic efficiency of modernizing equipment for thermal power plants (TPP). The goal of the study is to identify the economic efficiency of modernizing the equipment of the TPP basing on new technology and taking into account cost minimization and environmental requirements. The subject of the study is the theoretical and practical aspects of the economic efficiency of equipment modernization. To find a solution of this problem, the feasibility analysis was used to determine the current state of TPP equipment and the indicators of the parameters of old and new equipment as well as to introduce new equipment, which enables burning low-grade and waste coal in a circulating fluidized bed (CFB). The issues of energy as the industry that covers energy resources, extraction, transformation, transfer and use of various types of energy are considered. The features of an electric power station, as a set of installations, equipment and tools which are used directly for producing electric energy are highlighted as well as the necessary facilities that are located on a designated area.
