Forecasting resource requirements for implementation of centralized milk procurement projects

Description of the current system of centralized milk provision is considered. The shortcomings of forecasting methods of resource requirements for project implementation are presented. The method of forecasting the need for resources for the implementation of centralized milk provision projects has been developed and its features have been described. The order of determination of periods of life cycle of projects of centralized milk provision is substantiated. The results of determination of characteristic periods of the life cycle of centralized milk provision projects for various resource parameters are presented. On the basis of the performed researches, it was established that for a given project environment (conditions of the PJSC «Brody factory of skimmed milk powder» (Brody, Lviv region), the duration of characteristic periods of the life cycle of centralized milk provision projects and the need for resources (the number and number involved in transportation cars) depend on its parameters and volume of milk provision.
