Organizational Peculiarities Of Digital Technology Implementation In Production Processes

Abstract

This paper examines the organizational features concerning the implementation of digital technologies in mechanical engineering production. When introducing advanced technologies into the production process, the main attention is usually paid to technical aspects, and insufficient attention is paid to organizational and economic aspects. The authors show that organizational factors are no less important than technical ones because they can generate transaction costs, the amount of which can level the economic effect caused by the introduction of new technologies. The machine-building production development testifies that together with technical innovations, organizational innovations were created, which contributed to the disclosure of the potential available for new technologies in the production system. By the example of machine-building enterprises, it is shown, that ignoring the organizational factors reduces the efficiency of modern digital technologies and requires additional costs for their implementation. A comprehensive approach to the implementation of advanced digital technologies is necessary to avoid unnecessary costs and to increase the efficiency of their use.
