The problems of mobility as a factor for transport development

Článek se zabývá některými aspekty udržitelného rozvoje v dopravě se zaměřeným na ČR a Evropskou unii. Z článku plyne, že zajištění udržitelného rozvoje v ČR není lacinou finanční a organizační záležitostí, ale je nezbytné v ní pokračovat nejenom ve vztahu k ostatním členským státům EU a vlastně celému světu, ale především k odkazu dalším našim generacím.The paper deals with some aspects of sustainable development in transport focusing on CR and the European Union. The article implies that sustainable development in the CR is not a cheap financial and organizational matter, but it is necessary to continue in relation to the other Member States of the EU and indeed the whole world, but also the legacy of our next generations

The Identification and Development of Talents in the Environment of Logistics Companies

This paper focuses on the identification of talents as a strategic investment of logistics companies to increase their competitiveness in the future. The paper represents partial result of research aimed the identification of talents as the potential key managers in the specific conditions of logistics companies. Research question is how we can optimize the identification of the potential talents of logistics companies so that investment for their development will not be lost. There is a proposed use of SAAT’s pair wise comparison method for optimizing in the paper. The proposal is verified on a model example in the environment of logistics company

Direction of the Corporate Culture in Slovak and German Transport Companies from a Top Managers' Perspective

The objective of the paper is to compare the level of corporate culture in Slovakia and Germany. Top managers of large transport companies were asked to participate in our research. Following the analysis, hierarchy corporate culture, with dominant features such as keeping within rules, regulations, was preferred in Slovak companies. Top Slovak managers asked for following this trend in the future. Clan corporate culture was the most used at present time as well as most preferred in following 5 years in Germany. Top German managers focused on employee's needs and employee's development. Our recommendation for top German managers is to remain in this trend. For top Slovak managers we propose to change their perception and to consider employees as a key factor. Employees are owners of new creative ideas through which enterprises can build their competitive advantage

Passengers’ Evaluation of the Integrated Transport Systems

This paper presents the outcomes of the research focused on the passengers’ subjective point of view on the Integrated Transport Systems (ITS) comparing with the separate non-integrated traffic lines. The research, within project realized in the Institute of Technology and Business in České Budějovice, was performed in several cities located in the central part of the EU where the establishing the ITS has been planned. The introductory parts of the paper contain the theoretical approaches of the given issue. Particularly, the issue of ITS such as, the review of performed ITS studies, information on the realized surveys and the draft of the used model are outlined in these parts. The used model includes two variants of the problem solving: ITS and individual bus. The surveyed criteria include: unproductive time, time of drive and travel fee.In the next two parts of the paper, the application of the model to real traffic conditions is presented and the outcomes of the research problem are emphasized

Application of Break-Even Point Analysis

The determination of Break-even point represents the important information for the enterprise because it defines the minimum amount of products that enterprise needs to produce for cover their fixed and variable costs. Knowing the Break-even point allows enterprise to properly estimate revenues necessary to ensure profits. In this paper, authors deal with the identifying Break-even point and indicate a model example of its calculation

USER REQUIREMENTS TRANSPORT SYSTEM

Článek se zabývá problematikou základních parametrů, které ovlivňují volbu dopravního prostředku uživatelem dopravy. Článek navrhuje Saatyho metodu jako metodu vhodnou pro stanovením vah důležitosti základních parametrů (požadavků uživatele). Článek je publikován v rámci řešení úlohy GAČR „Výzkum tvorby hodnoty pro uživatele.This paper deals with problems of basic parametres, which influence selection of transport mean by transportation user. This contribution proposes Saaty method as methodology suitable for setting of suitable weíghts. These weights inculde importance of basic parametres of user requirements. This article is published within research solution of "The Research of User Value Creation".

Optimization of Delivery Routes using the Little´s Algorithm

The contribution focuses on possible use of operational research methods in practice. The application of operational research methods is made on a specific transport relation, which is used by the LOGI company for the product distribution . Optimization of the delivery route was carried out using the Little´s law. The optimization resulted in a total saving of 312 km per year

Indicators as a Tool for Assessing the Level of Sustainable Urban Freight Logistics

Urban transport system planning has been moving towards sustainability in recent years, and the concept of urban freight logistics is an integral part of this planning. Urban freight logistics involves many stakeholders that participate in its operation and should be considered in the system planning process. The paper presents one of the approaches to the methodology for the selection of key indicators suitable for the evaluation and monitoring of a sustainable system of urban freight logistics in such a way that it reflects as much as possible the needs of all involved stakeholders. This is done by applying the selected method of multi-criteria analysis with the involvement of various urban freight logistics stakeholders. Based on the proposed methodology, the paper defines significant indicators that can be considered for further evaluation of the level of a sustainable urban freight logistics system. In addition to the possibilities of further development of this methodology, the application of determined significant indicators for calculating the proposed index of sustainable urban freight logistics is discussed. The proposed procedure can be implemented in the preparatory steps in the framework of the creation of sustainable urban logistics plans (SULPs)
