Economic aspects of introducing automatic control systems in the activities of production organizations

The article is devoted to modeling and evaluating the possible economic effect from the introduction of automated control systems in the office work of an industrial enterprise. A brief history of the emergence of automated control systems is described, their modern classification is considered, and the main stages of development are highlighted. The authors put forward a hypothesis that some processes in the enterprise should be automated due to the high influence of the human factor and irrational labor and energy costs. To justify the introduction of such a system, it is necessary to use an integrated approach to assessing the current state of the organization, based on an analysis of its strengths and weaknesses, as well as external opportunities and threats. Based on the identified factors, the methodology for choosing a specific system for the needs of the enterprise should be determined. The main effect of the introduction of an automated control system is to save the employee's working time, which he would have spent on performing the same task without the use of automated control systems. Thus, real time savings are calculated, as well as savings on employee wages by reducing the time spent on routine processes. The expediency of introducing automated control systems into the management activities of an enterprise is substantiated on the basis of calculated economic performance indicators and their comparison with normative and target indicators. As an example, an automated intelligent system for forecasting government contracts is considered.
