Substantiation of an Indicator System for Assessing the Transport and Logistics Potential of Regional Water Transport

The article discusses the issues of substantiation of the system of indicators for assessing the transport and logistics potential of regional water transport. The relevance of this problem is due to the insufficient elaboration of the rationale and the absence of a comprehensive set of quantitative indicators characterizing this sector of economic activity. The objective of the study is to develop proposals for organizing a multicomponent monitoring system based on mathematical tools to accurately reflect the current state of the water transport complex, considering its development directions. Mathematical analysis was used as the primary methodological approach. The empirical foundation of the study comprises scientific works of prominent economists. The main outcome is the development of a three-component model of the transport and logistics potential of the regional water transport complex, enabling the calculation of a composite indicator — its integral assessment — which is valuable for further theoretical analysis. This model can also be used by executive authorities of Russian Federation regions for making prompt management decisions.
