Abstract
The article considers the relevant indicators which characterize the principles that most affect the effectiveness of logistics support management and the Deputy Commander of Combined Arms Force on Logistics functional efficiency under conditions of combat actions. To evaluate effectiveness of logistics support management, it is suggested to use a partial criterion of efficiency, namely: the degree of efficiency in performing tasks on logistics support management and duration of the logistics support management cycle of the combined arms force under conditions of combat actions.
Keywords: combat actions; combined arms force; logistics support system; materiel.
1. INTRODUCTION.
Logistics management is an integral part of troop management and is collaborative work of commanders, staffs, deputy commanders on logistics, services and logistics support bodies in order to maintain combat readiness of the combined arms force in terms of logistics, as well as ensuring the combat readiness of logistics under conditions of combat actions.
Formulation of the problem. The analysis of logistical support of troops (forces) [1], conducted in recent years, shows that insufficient attention was paid to the issues such as the following: training of units and officials as for logistical support of the combined arms force under conditions of combat actions, and rational choice of the area for reception and transfer of materiel to the combined arms force under conditions of combat actions [2].
These issues acquired the greatest relevance just now while conducting the Joint Forces operation (JFO).
Analysis of recent research and publications. In scientific research it is necessary to pay attention to the scientific works of O. Vorobyov, I. Vlasov, O. Uhryno-vych, etc., who deeply reveal most of the issues on this range of problems [3].
The purpose of the article is to select and substantiate the indicators of management efficiency evaluation of the combined arms logistics system under conditions of combat actions.
2. RESEARCH RESULTS
The purpose of logistics management is to direct the capabilities of logistics services and bodies to support the combined arms force. To achieve this goal it is necessary to perform a number of tasks of logistical support, that are the subject matter of logistics management.
Logistics management includes: obtaining, acquisition, analysis and evaluation of the initial data of the situation; making a decision on the logistical support of the combined arms force; defining and distribution of tasks for logistics support; logistics support for the combined arms force; organizing and carrying out activities of logistics support for increasing combat readiness of the combined arms force and maintaining their combat effectiveness; organization of a logistics management system; implementation of measures for moral and psychological training of personnel; control over the readiness of combined arms force units concerning
logistics; management of the logistics units and services activities [4].
The basis of logistics management is the decision of the commander to perform the tasks, and organizational work of the combined arms force deputy commander on logistics and the management bodies concerning logistics.
The main principles of logistics management are: chain of command in logistics; determination in implementation of decisions; timely response to changes in the situation; personal responsibility for the decisions made on implementation of their tasks.
Relevant indicators, that characterize the principles that most affect the efficiency of logistics management and quality of the combined arms force deputy commander's work on logistics have been introduced [4].
Thus, the sustainability of logistics management presupposes the ability of the combined arms force command and the management bodies to perform the tasks under conditions of combat actions.
Sustainability is a complex characteristic of the logistics management system and is achieved by creation of logistics operations center; protection from interference created by both the enemy and their own radioe-lectronic means; increasing the time of failure-free operation and rapid restoration of command and control facilities.
The complex indicator of sustainability is characterized by the coefficient of sustainability of the logistics support system; and partial indicators - by parameters that take into account the reliability of functioning of the logistics support system elements; by parameters that take into account the survivability of components of the logistics support system; parameters that take into account the quality of management of the logistic process.
Continuity of logistics management characterizes the ability of officials and logistics bodies to influence constantly the course of logistics support of the combined arms force.
Continuity of logistics management is achieved by: constant communication with provided units, as well as subordinated and interacting bodies of logistics support, and with the senior commanders; ensuring constant readiness of logistics operations center; timely capacity building of management tools; rational location of logistics operations center, command posts of logistics units, their timely transfer under conditions of combat actions, if necessary, the rapid transfer of control from one center to another; rapid recovery of broken management.
Continuity is characterized by survivability indicators. The research of the survivability of logistics support units was carried out using existing techniques [5, 6].
These techniques cover several states of the unit: outside the shelter, concealment using protective terrain characteristics; outside the shelter, concealment using organic means of disguise; inside the shelter, with the use of organic means of disguise.
In addition, the survivability of the unit while delivering materiel and at the point of breakdown was studied.
In circumstances where modern means of reconnaissance are applied, survivability of the logistics support unit is characterized by the indicator of survivabil-ity during the predetermined time and the probability of damage to the object [6].
Analysis of operational forming-up of the combined arms force, the possible composition of defensive or offensive enemy forces and their capabilities to allocate subversive reconnaissance units, detachments, tactical airborne troops, etc., shows that up to 25% of their total number sent to the rear of our troops will operate at a depth of up to 10 km, up to 25% - from 10 to 60 km., the rest will operate at a depth of 200 km or more.
The probability of the enemy influence on logistics support units in modern operations can increase, thus, the survivability of logistics support units will decrease.
The impact of the survivability of logistics support units on the efficiency of logistics in general requires additional consideration. This, in turn, requires the development of suggestions as for increasing the surviva-bility of logistics support units of the combined arms force.
The interaction between the logistics support system elements of the combined arms force and its appropriate functioning is ensured by the process management, that is an integral part of logistics management and consists of for the organization and management implementation measures, and includes timely collection and processing of the information, data preparation and logistics decision-making on logistics, as well as timely and clear planning and setting tasks for executors, constant control and assistance during task execution; establishment of close cooperation with logistics support services; establishment and implementation of measures for protection, security and defense of logistics support units.
In modern combat actions logistics management is much more complicated. This is due to both the sharp increase of the time factor role and the peculiarities of the combined arms force tactic in combat. It requires the use of more skilled methods of work from officials when planning and implementing logistics management.
The efficiency of logistics management is characterized by the ability of officials and logistics support bodies to solve problems under conditions of combat actions.
The process of logistical support takes place under conditions of continuous influence of destabilizing factors, due to this, the actual behavior of the structural elements of the process deviates from the specified. The efficiency of logistics support significantly depends on the efficiency of management.
3. CONCLUSIONS AND PROSPECTS OF FURTHER RESEARCH
Thus, the selection and substantiation of indicators of logistics management efficiency evaluation of the combined arms force units under conditions of combat
actions, namely, indicators of probability of forces attendance and means of providing materiel in relation to a certain area with minimal performans of the materiel transportation system, taking into account the enemy fire activity; efficiency coefficients of the materiel support subsystem, taking into account the ground location of military equipment and personnel of this subsystem.
Analysis of the management cycle components and analysis of the management structure based on the results of previous studies [7] shows that the time spent on the management cycle of logistics support of the combined arms force can be up to 2.66 hours.
Low operations indicators of the efficiency degree in performing tasks on logistics management reduce the efficiency of the logistics support process of the combined arms force and require reduction in time spent on the logistics management cycle. For a person responsible for making decisions, the concept of "efficiency criterion" is the rule that allows to compare certain decisions, methods, and options for achieving the goal.
