Abstract

Structural shifts occurring in the economy require a clarification of the context of both external and internal transformations to ensure sustainable industrial development. This will enable timely adjustments to the production chain of industrial enterprises and adapt their activities to changing economic conditions. This necessitates a new approach to forecasting business processes in the fuel industry, taking into account forecast scenarios that take into account structural changes in the economy as a whole and the opportunities arising from new models of interaction with related industries and the benefits of digitalization. The presented approach to forecasting business processes in industry is based on the concept of value creation within two interconnected and complementary contexts and aims to ensure long-term competitive advantages through strategic planning methods for fuel industry enterprises, which are links in the value chain. The basis for forecasting is the development of business processes that correspond to qualitative indicators of economic growth in the coal industry as a branch of the fuel industry.

Keywords: Forecasting, business processes, process approach, systematicity, added value, production forces, resource potential, production chain.
