Modern Principles of Design and Modernization of Enterprise Production Systems in High-Technology Industries

Abstract

The paper discusses the development of modern principles for constructing production systems of enterprises in high-tech industries in order to preserve and develop their production potential. An enterprise production system is a reasonably organized interconnected set of facilities, equipment, and other resources, technological and business processes, which, in conjunction with the social subsystem and under the control of the control subsystem, ensures the value adding and delivery to the consumer. The acuteness of the problem being solved is caused, on the one hand, by the need to develop market competencies for the efficient diversification of the activities of defense contractors, where high-tech production is mainly concentrated, and, on the other hand, by the challenges of the fourth industrial revolution, which radically change the composition of productive forces in the economy. Using the historical diachronic method, the authors reveal the dialectics of the organization development paradigm and the corresponding methodological tools together with the concepts of organizing production systems of industrial enterprises. Summarizing the results of the study makes it possible to formulate basic principles for the construction and modernization of production systems of enterprises in high-technology industries, which have not been embodied in management practice until now. These include: focus on democratization and involvement of personnel in solving a wide range of production and enterprise management tasks; summoning creative abilities of the production process participants to reduce losses and optimize production; reflection of innovations caused by the beginning of the fourth industrial revolution in the production system of the enterprise, introduction of CALS technologies into the production system. It is noted that the use of modern organizational and economic methods and concepts of improving production systems should be based on a gradual phased implementation of all spectrum of positive innovations contained within through implementation of successive projects based on building and using the methods of Six Sigma concept.
