Abstract

Activities of logistics operators in providing global supply chains are becoming increasingly relevant, theoretically and practically significant. The purpose of the study was to determine the types of costs of a logistics operator in the delivery of special categories of cargoes and to identify the preconditions for their optimization. In solving the tasks, the authors used the abstract-logical method, methods of generalization, system and statistical analysis, and expert assessments. A critical analysis of scientific researches on the development of Industry 4.0 and the formation of a logistics operator 4.0, the multimodal interaction features, the development of various logistics systems on certain modes of transport and in cities was carried out. The main results of the study were to determine the principles of emergence, structuring and establishing ways to optimize the delivery cost of various categories of special cargo. The results of the study will be relevant for logistics operators, airlines, airports, freight forwarders, and other participants of transport and logistics markets, as well as scholars.
