Organisational Sustainability Management Principles

The objective of the article is to substantiate and implement an approach to designing the principles of sustainability management of organisations and their associations, which ensures digitalisation of these principles and their structuring regarding levels of management, as well as between adjacent links in the logistics chain.

The research used methods of classification, analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction as research methods, and binary matrices formed based on classification features and their dichotomies, which make it possible to increase the objectivity of the results obtained, as a tool.

The article substantiates the possibility of designing organisation management principles based on their actual qualitative features of principles and dichotomies with further formation of binary matrices that allow for digitalisation of management principles and their structuring regarding levels of organisation management, as well as between adjacent links of the logistics chain; develops an ordered set of principles for organisational sustainability management with justification for their quantity and quality; proves the compliance of the developed management principles with the goals and objectives developed by the United Nations in 2015.

The implementation of the obtained results will reduce the lost profit of organisations and their associations, the time and costs for preparation and implementation of management decisions, will respond in a timely manner to the unique requirements of end consumers, and will also ensure that the parameters and characteristics of the internal environment of organisations and their associations correspond to the nature, duration, and volatility of environmental factors.

The suggested approaches and solutions, being sufficiently universal, can refer to full extent, to transport and logistics organisations and associations, as well as to all participants in supply chain, and are particularly relevant with the account for accelerated adoption of digital technology in transport and logistics activities.
