Міжнародний маркетинг та маркетинговий аудит в контексті європейської інтеграції та глобалізації

Особливості міжнародного маркетингу визначаються специфікою зовнішнього середовища, в умовах якої він реалізується. Перш за все необхідно враховувати ставлення національного уряду до зовнішньоекономічної діяльності. Воно може створювати сприятливі умови для здійснення зовнішньоекономічної діяльності. І навпаки, уряд може бути незацікавленим у виході окремих своїх фірм на зовнішній ринок, може створити всілякі перешкоди на цьому шляху. Для маркетингу в цілому та для міжнародного маркетингу сьогодні характерне швидке старіння ідей і концепцій, викликане змінами ринкової ситуації. А система управління компанією інерційна: маркетингові стратегії, методи і прийоми, які застосовувалися вчора, застосовуються і сьогодні. Тому корисно залучати сторонніх фахівців для проведення маркетингового аудиту, що дозволяє по-новому поглянути на звичні обставини і умови, привнести нові ідеї і відкрити нові можливості. Передбачається, що процеси глобалізації мають суттєвий влив не тільки на розвиток міжнародного маркетингу, а й на маркетинговий аудит, що в свою чергу дає змогу визначити особливості міжнародного маркетингу. Метою статті є дослідження сутності міжнародного маркетингу та маркетингового аудиту, представлено основні їх характеристики та принципи взаємодії в сучасних умовах господарювання. Методи дослідження: метод системного аналізу та логічного узагальнення – для імплементація напрямів розвитку міжнародного маркетингу; субстратний підхід – для обґрунтування та систематизації особливостей міжнародного маркетингу та маркетингового аудиту. Обґрунтовано особливості міжнародного маркетингу та маркетингового аудиту, це дає змогу оцінити діяльність підприємства в сфері маркетингу та міжнародного маркетингу, порівняти отримані дані про маркетингову діяльність підприємства на внутрішньому та зовнішньому ринках з підходом до маркетингу прямих конкурентів, розробити рекомендації щодо підвищення ефективності роботи маркетингового підрозділу на підприємстві, щодо застосування сучасного інструментарію маркетингу та особливостей міжнародного маркетингу і визначити алгоритм їх реалізації, щоб відповісти на нові вимоги ринку і конкурентної ситуації, оцінити ефективність діючого персоналу служби маркетингу, прийняти кадрові рішення, визначити якісні та кількісні потреби в персоналі. Питання проведення маркетингового аудиту в сьогоднішніх умовах функціонування підприємств має першочерговий характер. Його необхідність полягає в визначенні ефективності існуючих методів управління, а також вироблення нових підходів до створення комплексу маркетингу в рамках стратегії підприємства, що діє в умовах евроінтеграційних та глобалізаційних процесів.Features of international marketing are determined by the specific environment in which it is implemented. First of all, it is necessary to take into account the attitude of the national government to foreign economic activity. It can create favorable conditions for carrying out foreign economic activities. Conversely, the government may be uninterested in the entry of its individual firms into the foreign market, and may create all sorts of obstacles along the way. Marketing in general and international marketing today is characterized by the rapid aging of ideas and concepts caused by the changing market situation. And the company management system is inertial: the marketing strategies, methods and techniques used yesterday are still in use today. Therefore, it is useful to involve third parties to conduct a marketing audit, which allows you to take a fresh look at the usual circumstances and conditions, bring in new ideas and open up new opportunities. It is assumed that the processes of globalization have a significant impact not only on the development of international marketing, but also on marketing audit, which in turn allows to determine the features of international marketing. The aim of the article is a study of the essence of international marketing and marketing audit, presents their main characteristics and principles of interaction in modern business conditions. The research methodology: method of systematic analysis and logical generalization – for implementation of directions of development of international marketing; substrate approach – to justify and systematize the features of international marketing and marketing audit. Features of international marketing and marketing audit are substantiated, it allows to evaluate the activity of the enterprise in the sphere of marketing and international marketing, to compare the obtained data on the marketing activity of the enterprise in the domestic and foreign markets with the approach to the marketing of direct competitors, to develop recommendations for increasing the efficiency of marketing division, on the use of modern marketing tools and features of international marketing and to determine the algorithm their implementation to meet the new requirements of the market and the competitive situation, to evaluate the effectiveness of existing staff of marketing, make personnel decisions, identify qualitative and quantitative needs for staff. The question of conducting a marketing audit in today's conditions of functioning of enterprises is of the highest priority. Its need is to determine the effectiveness of existing management methods, as well as to develop new approaches to creating a complex marketing within the enterprise strategy, which operates in the context of European integration and globalization processes

Simulation of duplicate tooling consumption at aircraft manufacturing enterprises

To simulate the consumption of duplicate technological tooling (hereinafter referred to as TT), it is proposed to use the apparatus of multivariate regression analysis, which provides the main patterns formalization of consumption formation value in the form of linear regression dependencies. An important difference of the proposed approach to the development of regression models is an increased degree of detail due to the use of the number of detail operations performed using specific TT sizes as independent variables, which makes it possible to eliminate the calculation error associated with the presence of passing positions in the planning period (batches of parts and assembly units ). As a result, a quantitative assessment of the constructed dependencies based on the calculation of multiple correlation coefficients, the Fisher dispersion ratio, the Theil’s coefficient of irrelevance allowed us to conclude that they are adequate to the conditions of consumption TT at the aviation enterprise. To improve the adequacy of displaying real processes of TT consumption, the developed models are equipped with a parametric adaptation mechanism. The use of the steepest descent method makes it possible to adjust the regression parameters based on incoming data, taking into account the main trends in the development of the simulated process and providing for smoothing its random fluctuations

Opportunities for immunocorrection aiming for reduction of morbidity in the areas with adverse occupational and environmental conditions

Previous studies have shown that prolonged professional contact with chemical xenobiotics contributes to sensitization of immune system and development of typical immunopathological processes, i.e., allergies and autoimmune diseases. Origin and severity of immune system disorders depends on the spectrum and duration of exposure to adverse factors and patterns of professional activity at the chemically hazardous facilities. The study of structural and functional changes in cellular, humoral and some factors of innate immunity in people working and living in areas with unfavorable environmental conditions revealed a number of immunological disorders that can be characterized as secondary immunodeficiency conditions, which may manifest with increased frequency of acute respiratory infections and other chronic diseases. Much attention is given to prevention and treatment of secondary immunodeficiency conditions, which are associated with decreased numbers of lymphocytes expressing CD3, CD4, CD8. The purpose of the study was determined by recent positive experience of using highly effective drugs based on thymic regulatory peptides affecting various steps of homeostasis, in order to correct immune disorders caused by exposure to radiation and other toxic substances. The aim of this study was to evaluate changes in immunity and effectiveness of immune correction by means of immunotropic drugs, i.e., Thymogen nasal spray, and Cytovir-3 capsules, in the cohorts living and working under the conditions of heavy chemical exposure. We observed 249 persons aged 18 years to 63 years recruited from the employees of the “Polygon “Krasny Bor” State Enterprise. The people had longterm professional contacts with the components of industrial toxic waste were under examination. Group 1 consisted of the administration staff, group 2 included drivers of special cargo transport. The control group consisted of 137 employees at the car enterprises in Saint Petersburg. The duration of follow-up observation was 1 year. The patients with a detected decrease in cellular immunity received immunotropic drugs based on alpha-glutamyl-tryptophan (Thymogen nasal spray dosed (Thymogen, 62 persons), or combined encapsuleted Cytovir-3 drug (Cytovir, 31 cases). 14 days after finishing the course, a second immunological study was conducted. Following the immunotropic therapies, the subjects showed an increase in relative content of CD3+, CD4+, and CD8+ subpopulations, normalization of functional oxygen-dependent metabolism of polymorphonuclear neutrophil granulocyte system in the NBT test, as well as harmonization of the content of serum immunoglobulin contents. The one-year follow-up showed high effectiveness of these drugs, as shown by decreased incidence of acute infectious and lower exacerbation rates of chronic respiratory and gastrointestinal diseases. For the group 1 with working experience of 1 to 5 years, the persons who received Thymogen exhibited lower incidence of acute respiratory viral infections (a 37% decrease), like as less frequency of bronchopulmonary diseases (by 25% from the baseline). The patients with long-term work experience in an unfavorable area (Group 2), who received Thymogen, have shown four-fold reduction in acute respiratory morbidity, decreased frequency of other respiratory diseases (1.5-fold), and disorders of digestive organs (a 1.75-fold decrease). Among persons from the 1st and 2nd groups with work experience of up to 1 year, who received Cytovir-3, the SARS incidence decreased by 1.95 and 2.0 times, respectively. It is shown that timely detection of immune system disorders induced by the influence of complex harmful chemical factors, and administration of selective immunocorrecting therapy may contribute to reduction of acute and chronic morbidity in the people working under unfavorable environmental conditions
