Abstract

Logistic outsourcing is the use of the resources of a specialized company to carry out business processes and the functions of logistics management. The development of outsourcing in Russia is constrained by the insufficient development of the logistics services market. The cost-effectiveness of outsourcing is not absolute. The purpose of the work is to evaluate the effectiveness of logistics outsourcing. Tasks include determining the location of logistics outsourcing in the management system, a review of methods for evaluating the effectiveness of outsourcing as a strategic decision of a company, and determining the factors of its effectiveness. The work used the provisions of economic theory and management, the concept of reduced costs, the classification of costs of the organization. The result of the study is a method for assessing the effectiveness of logistics outsourcing by changing the absolute value of the reduced costs of the company before and in the conditions of outsourcing, testing the proposed method.
