Logistics technologies used in the construction of nuclear power plants
The relevance of the topic is determined by the importance of logistics in solving various technological and organizational and managerial tasks during the construction of nuclear power plants. The feasibility of digitalization of logistics systems for nuclear power plants construction is substantiated, since the efficiency of the organization of logistics has a direct impact on both the speed and quality of the performed installation work performed, and the overall profitability of the project. Methods of analysis of existing approaches in the management of material and technical support of nuclear power plantswere used in the study. Using the induction method, the components of the logistics system are decomposed and transport, warehouse logistics, and foreign experience in using modern digital technologies are considered separately. The study describes the problems of transport and warehouse logistics for the construction of high-tech facilities, shows the importance of logistics processes, considers foreign experience in using modern digital technologies, and assesses the prospects for implementing these technologies. The lack of synchronization in the functioning of transport and logistics subsystems in practice leads to delays in the receipt of necessary materials, an increase in inventory of material resources, transport downtimes, increased costs and violation of the terms of construction of nuclear power plants. The most promising tool for solving these problems and improving the effectiveness of logistics systems is the application of the world's best practices in the field of logistics for the construction of nuclear power facilities using modern digital logistics trends. Introduction of modern digital technologies such as artificial intelligence/neural networks, Big Data, drones, etc. makes it possible to optimize the technological processes of working with cargo flows, significantly reduce the logistics costs of logistics systems, and perform everything "just in time".
