Support for Management Decisions in Digital Transport Corridors

In the context of global changes and the complexity of socio-economic systems, making management decisions is becoming an increasingly challenging process. Digital transformation, which has become a key goal for the development of the Russian Federation until 2036, involves the automation of transactions and the implementation of technologies for processing large amounts of data, machine learning, and artificial intelligence. In particular, transport and logistics are priority sectors for the introduction of innovations, where the development of digital transport corridor ecosystems becomes an important element of infrastructure. The purpose of this study is to justify the need to take into account the system architecture, ongoing processes, solved problems, and applied models and optimization methods when making management decisions in the field of digital transport corridor design. To achieve the goal, based on the methodology of system analysis and risk management, the following tasks were identified: analysis of logistics technologies, taking into account the differences in information systems of the participating states in international transport and logistics projects and the level of digital maturity; risk diagnostics based on correlation, regression analysis, and simulation modeling, taking into account the conflicting interests of the participants. The study showed that digital transport corridors are considered as a mechanism for supporting management decisions that optimize the transportation process. The priority services for implementation in the ecosystem of digital transport corridors are those that directly affect the security, reliability, and adaptability of supply chains. The paper proposes services related to goods containing intellectual property, including those imported through parallel imports. In this case, the formation of a digital transport corridor ecosystem becomes a tool aimed at solving transport logistics problems. Therefore, when designing a digital transport corridor ecosystem and related services, it is necessary to focus on reducing potential risks and ensuring the adoption of correct management decisions in the field of sustainable logistics chains.
