The article is aimed at forming an express assessment of the level of economic security for a construction enterprise (which, unlike others, is based on an assessment of the level of efficiency of management of contractors and subcontractors) and the choice of a special package of measures to increase the level of economic security. The article analyzes the current state of the civil construction industry in Ukraine, market characteristics of this sector of the economy. There was a decline in the construction sector during 2020–2021, especially in the first half of 2021. Further, there is a slowdown in labor migration, some supply chains of building materials are interrupted; respectively, there is a need to resume economic activity. Also, theoretical studies of the authors allowed to highlight the main aspects of the formation of economic security of enterprise through the analysis of the relevant market and the dynamics of the civil construction industry. The relevance of creating an express assessment of the level of economic security of a construction enterprise is substantiated. An express assessment is proposed to be carried out on the basis of determining the level of efficiency of management of contractors and subcontractors – to what extent they adhere to the traditional policy of value and income formation. The assessment methodology includes four stages: questionnaire (containing 20 questions in four directions of evaluation); processing of questionnaire data (Delphi method is used); formation of an evaluation scale to determine the level of economic security of a construction enterprise; selection of a package of measures to improve the economic security of civil construction enterprises. The packages of measures to improve the economic security of civil construction enterprises are being developed for both the formal and the informal sectors. The authors believe that it is advisable to adapt the proposed package of measures to the characteristics of each individual enterprise using an individual approach. The proposed express assessment will allow monitoring the condition of the construction enterprise in a short time and identify latent crisis phenomena.

The successful performance of construction enterprises as well as their competitiveness are largely determined by the construction technology and management methods used. In this respect two levels referring to a building or structure itself and to a construction enterprise as a whole should be distinguished. The technology of a building or structure embraces its construction system generally characterizing building materials, design solutions and load‐bearing structures and enclosures used in the construction of this particular building. The problem of selecting a general technological criterion for the whole construction enterprise arises. A construction enterprise fulfilling its annual program can simultaneously construct buildings and structures based on various construction systems, i.e. it can use various technologies. Searching for an integrated criterion to describe an enterprise as a whole three main issues including the variation of the applied technologies and their volumes and technological effectiveness should be taken into consideration. In the paper the problem of determining technological effectiveness of construction systems is considered. A method of pairwise comparison developed by T. Saaty was used to address this problem. The calculations were made for all thirteen technologies currently used in Lithuanian construction industry. Based on the suggested approach the weight of technological effectiveness was determined for each of them in the parts of one.

This article is devoted to issues of interaction of stakeholders of construction enterprises. First of all, the peculiarities of the construction industry are defined, which form additional requirements for the development of an integrated system for assessing interaction with stakeholders. Second, approaches to the formation of a register of potential stakeholders have been identified. A template for analysis has been developed, and individual examples are grouped by interaction directions. The methodology of identifying potential stakeholders by means of a three-level process of applying different versions of expert assessment methods in order to minimize their negative factor – subjectivity, is proposed. Methods of direct selection of experts and algorithms of their assessment are defined. Proposals to rank stakeholders according to their priority and potential result from their interaction with the construction enterprise have been developed. According to the integral assessment, ways of controlling the processes of interaction with stakeholders of different ranking levels are proposed, recommendations for building a further strategy for managing these processes are given. A system of modeling interaction between construction enterprises and stakeholders to ensure planning, organization, monitoring, and control processes in optimistic, realistic, and pessimistic scenarios has been created. Recommendations for further use of the methodology of integral assessment of the interaction of stakeholders of construction enterprises in practice are given.

AbstractOne of the key problems in managing the realization of a construction project is the selection of appropriate working crews and coordinating their activities in a way that ensures the highest degree of implementation of defined goals (minimizing the project duration and/or reducing downtime and related costs). Most of the existing methods of work harmonization used in construction industry allow obtaining the desired results only in relation to the organization of the processes realization in repetitive linear projects. In case of realization of non-linear construction objects or construction units, it is usually necessary to choose between the reduction of the project implementation time and maintaining the continuity of crews work on the units. It was found that there is a lack in the literature of developed method enabling harmonization of crews’ work, while minimizing the downtime at work and the duration of the entire project taking into account additional constraints, e.g. the need to not exceed the deadlines for the realization of the project stages.The article presents the concept of a multi-criteria optimization method of harmonizing the execution of non-linear processes of a multi-unit construction project in deterministic conditions. It will enable the reduction of realization time and downtimes in work, taking into account the preferences of the decision maker regarding the relevance of the optimization criteria. A mathematical model for optimizing the selection of crews and order of completion of units in multi-unit construction projects was also developed. In order to present the possibility of usage of the developed concept, an example of the optimal selection of crews and their work schedule was solved and presented. The proposed method may allow for better use of the existing production potential of construction enterprises and ensure synchronization of the crews employed during the work, especially in the case of difficulties in acquiring qualified staff in construction industry.

Introduction. Financial state of the construction enterprise, level of its financial stability, creditworthiness and liquidity depend on the availability of current assets, net cash flow (positive or negative), which is formed in the course of conducting payment transactions. The subject of the research is the flow of money of the construction enterprise. The research objectives: identifying the causes of current assets constraints at the construction industry enterprises; using projected cash flow budget and payment schedule as instruments of managing the enterprise cash flow. The purpose of the article is to determine the instruments for cash flow management of construction enterprises, taking into account the peculiarities of their activities. Method (methodology). The article suggests developing projected cash flow budgets and payment schedule to manage cash flows more efficiently (prevent negative net cash flow) based on estimates made by construction enterprises to determine the construction cost. The purpose of the payment schedule is to determine the flow of funds for the next day and the current week as a supplement and detailing of the projected cash flow budget. Research results. The use of the projected cash flow budget and payment schedule at the construction industry enterprises will help the management team to control the incoming and outgoing cash flows, form the data base for making decisions on the efficient use of funds. It will also promote the search for additional funding sources of the enterprise activity in the period of budget deficit as well as pre-justified investment of capital in the period of budgetary surplus Thus, the formation of projected cash flow budgets and payment schedule can be an important instrument for efficient cash flow management of construction enterprises. The method of formation of mutually agreed forecast budget of cash flow and payment calendar with definition of indicators of their efficiency in management of cash flows and a financial condition of the enterprise as a whole needs further improvement. The technique of forming mutually agreed projected cash flow budget and payment schedule along with the definition of their efficiency indicators in managing cash flows and the overall enterprise financial state requires further improvement.

The article explores the role and importance of outsourcing for managing business processes at enterprises of the construction industry. Since the main purpose of managing construction enterprises is to achieve high technical and economic indicators, compliance with the terms of construction of objects and their construction, ensuring an increase in profitability and profitability of operations in the long-term perspective. This is possible with the use of outsourcing, which, unlike subcontracting, is aimed at providing profitability by concentrating on the performance of priority activities for which the construction company has the highest level of competence. Also, outsourcing involves taking risks and responsibilities of an outsourcing company for the quality of running business processes. This is a significant difference from the subcontract works and allows forming the long-term competitive advantages of the construction enterprise.

Abstract The issue of cloud computing is a highly topical issue. Cloud computing represents a new model for information technology (IT) services based on the exploitation of Web (it represents a cloud) and other application platforms, as well as software as a service. In general, the exploitation of cloud computing in construction project management has several advantages, as demonstrated by several research reports. Currently, research quantifying the exploitation of cloud computing in the Slovak construction industry has not yet been carried out. The article discusses the issue of exploitation of cloud computing in construction project management in Slovakia. The main objective of the research is to confirm whether factors such as size of construction enterprise, owner of construction enterprise and participant of construction project have any impact on the exploitation level of cloud computing in construction project management. It includes confirmation of differences in use between different participants of the construction project or between construction enterprises broken down by size and shareholders.

Effective management at the level of the authorities is not possible if they are able to intelligently form their own unified system, which is recognized for the improvement of the main tasks of management. The very formation of the system of management of financial and economical bakery-free, as well as the combination of the different elements can be seen, In the event of a failure to comply with the provisions of this Law, the Company shall be entitled to the following services: Reinforced media and its interoperable resources as a whole – an indispensable skill for the effective and efficient conduct of the business in the eyes of other economic minds. A global crisis in the wake of the pandemic has made it possible for everyone to make his or her own adjustments in the life of a sustainable enterprise, without neglecting the fact that the great enterprise is small – everyone has compelled. In such minds, it is important to properly take management decisions and to take to my attention every situation in the world, the need to know the importance of the ability to implement and overcome problems in the management of activity. It is also important to instill respect for this by understanding financial and economic baking without baking in the growth of an influx of microeconomic and macroeconomic exhibits. It is important to see at the moment, which is the most important, or it is more understandable that there are investments in the form of clear strategic management decisions, which in their turn can lead to the bankroll, including the development of infrastructure and the growth of financial independence. Encourage a clear strategy of development, based on the analysis of ostentatious macro- and micro-economic factors, and the correct assessment of their investment – at the moment, which is the basis for the selection of next steps in development. Press, the state can not impose financial pidtrimku financial sector, and not to carry out politechnichnyh reforms, which can date the ability to reduce the situation and possible development, to create in the minds of crisis. It is in such minds that one should be able to know about such situations, that one should be able to show respect to the people of financial and economic bakery, and that one should develop all possibilities for the development of new factors.
