| Annotation: | Methods. The study uses general scientific and specific methods, including: theoretical generalizations - to generalize theoretical provisions and analyze international experience in the development of the transport logistics system. Results. The purpose of the paper is to study the role of logistics, transport and communications in economic development. It is emphasized that the logistics system, transport and communication systems play a major role in the economic development of countries and influence the processes of globalization. Despite the recent economic and infrastructural changes in Georgia, certain problems arise in logistics and transport. As a result of the research, it is confirmed that the proper functioning of the logistics system is related to the proper functioning of transport and communications and all its elements. Novelty. Quantitative and qualitative research methods were used. Our research is based on the materials of Samagide Kveleev, the results of local and international research conducted in this direction, the results of our previous research, scientific opinions, the National Transport and Logistics Strategy of Georgia for 2023–2030 and statistical data. Practical value. A Transportation Management System plays a vital role in supply chain management, as it enables businesses to manage and optimize their logistics operations. By automating transportation planning, freight management, and shipment tracking, a TMS helps companies to reduce costs, improve delivery times, and increase customer satisfaction. Additionally, a TMS provides real-time visibility into the supply chain, enabling businesses to respond quickly to changes in demand or supply. Relevant conclusions have been drawn and recommendations have been proposed. The results of the study are useful for government and scientific circles, business representatives, students, and the interested public. Recently, all the data that characterize the logistics index have improved in Georgia. Therefore, the process of Georgia's inclusion in the global economy has improved. However, a number of problems still remain, including infrastructure problems. Georgia still lags behind the indicators of the European and Central Asian regions. Despite the progress achieved, the competitiveness and efficiency of the Georgian logistics sector still remains low. |
