The article is the first to consider the author’s method of SWOT analysis of engineering companies of the state corporation “Rosatom”. The purpose of the SWOT analysis for organizations is to get a clear idea of the main directions of development of the objects understudy. Due to the impossibility of substantiating the optimality of the selected factors and the corresponding strategy, the spatiality and ambiguity of the SWOT analysis results arise. Purpose: defining the specifics of SWOT analysis for nuclear energy companies and consideration of the author’s method of SWOT analysis of engineering companies in the domestic nuclear industry. The implementation of this goal required the following tasks: - Studying the opportunities and threats of engineering companies in the nuclear industry. - Studying the strengths and weaknesses of engineering companies. - Offering a sound SWOT analysis methodology that takes into account the specifics of companies. Methodology. The features of the proposed method are: - taking into account the specifics of engineering companies in the nuclear industry, including the study of many factors characteristic of the nuclear power industry. Besides, taking into account the opportunities and threats for participants in the creation of nuclear power plants and other facilities created by other stakeholders in the process of development of engineering companies, as well as taking into account the strengths and weaknesses of the companies in the nuclear industry. - It is proposed to use an integrated approach when ranking strengths and weaknesses, taking into account the opportunities and threats of companies in the nuclear industry. We note that, first of all, indicators of reliability and safety of nuclear power plants and other facilities are taken into account when determining the strengths and weaknesses of engineering companies, and only then other analyzed indicators. Result: the method of ranking strengths and weaknesses proposed in the methodology can be used to substantiate the optimal decisions made by engineering companies. Conclusion: this technique can be applied to determine the state of the nuclear industry companies, to assess their efficiency and competitiveness.
Development and testing of an integrated signal validation system for nuclear power plants
