Matrix of strategic solutions as a tool to control the level of scientific and technological development of enterprises of the defence industry

This article describes the development of a strategic matrix that is used for making strategic decisions at the enterprises of the military-industrial complex. Presented matrix allows you to control the level of scientific and technological development in the enterprise. The matrix involves plotting and carrying out cross-evaluation of scientific and technological levels of development of the enterprise. Matrix, which is based on the evaluation, will allow you to elect the intended strategy and improve the level of scientific and technological development of the enterprise and to strengthen the current situation. Matrix of strategic solutions is a modified BCG matrix. This matrix consists of four squares. In each square there is the proposed strategy of the enterprise. The choice of a particular strategy (hit in any quadrant) is determined by the current level of scientific and technological development of the enterprise, marked on the axes Y and X. Levels of scientific and technological development are evaluated with the help of integral indicators of scientific and technological development. These indicators are designed specifically for the enterprises of the military-industrial complex. The article presents the formulas for the calculation of these ratios. The tactics of their calculation are given. Variables that are included with integral indicators and present the values of the reference indicators are described. In order to understand in which quadrant the enterprise will get it is necessary to calculate levels of scientific and technological development using provided formulas, and then draw directly to the matrix. The level is “high” if its value is greater than one and “low” if its value does not exceed one. Based on such combinations of high and low development of scientific and technological development we have got 4 quadrants: high scientific development in combination with low technological development; high scientific development in combination with high technological development; the low scientific development in combination with low technological development; the low scientific development in combination with high technological development. Each of the combinations is described in the article. Based on the situation of the company the policy options are proposed.
