Abstract

The article reviews the problems, emerging while planning, managing and evaluating the efficiency of material flows of enterprises, identifies and justifies the necessity of using integrated platform of management on the basis of systems and process theories. Moreover, the article provides the conceptual framework of models of systems decomposition and types of processes description and distinguishes the key steps for developing an integrated model of material flows. In addition, the article describes how the model of material flows, based on the integrated platform with the use of SADT- and ARIS-technologies, may be adapted in practice and shows the viability of developed models, collected in the albums of processes. The material flow model will provide an opportunity to conduct in-depth analysis and point out some details, which remain unnoticed by employees as well as by management team, so that it will help to identify problem areas and enhance the quality
