Abstract

The present research focuses on the development of mathematical procedures for controlling the regional management over product clusters. In order to improve mathematical support for the strategic controlling, we modified the rating assessment by applying business, technological, and social indicators of a dairy sector, due to which it becomes possible to run a quantitative external analysis of efficiency of the regional management. Mathematical procedures of operational controlling allowed us to identify the reserves of internal environment in the activities of regional clusters of the dairy sector. The first option of controlling is formalized by the model of finding the shortest paths to spread innovations from the regional leaders of dairy clusters. The second reserve of controlling is based on modeling the optimal cost-cutting by the criterion of maximal increase in profitability under conditions of using own feed crops. The third reserve of controlling was confirmed by the rank statistical tests related to improving productivity due to the effect of large-scale production of milk. Article contains results of practical approbation of the proposed system of mathematical procedures for controlling regional management over dairy clusters.
