1. Introduction

The project activities of the aviation industry of the Russian Federation and the competitiveness of manufactured or high-tech products are determined by the development level and quality of use of personnel, material, technological and service support, which are the structural characteristics of the strategic effectiveness of the project (Bondarenko, 2019). One of the most important factors determining the prolonged sustainable development of the aviation industry is their staffing. Economic potential of the country, pace of development of production, improve the standard of the life depend on how fully and effectively we use labour resources (Chemerisova&Kaloshina, 2016).

On the database of the State Program of the Russian Federation "Development of the aviation industry for 2013-2025" (Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation, 2014) and on the consolidated financial statements of the Public Joint Stock Company "United Aircraft Corporation" for 2011-2017 (United Aircraft Corporation, 2019). there was the analysis of development tendencies of aircraft industry sector of the Russian Federation from the perspective of staffing with use of two key indicators: "labour productivity" and "profitability of personnel on net profit" (Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation № 303, 2019). The results of the analysis show that Russian aircraft companies in terms of "productivity" do not reach the planned values. As for the second indicator, from 2011 to 2014, the values were higher than it was planned, and the situation was deteriorated. In the aviation industry there was a strong "failure" in 2014-2016.

In the era of advanced scientific and technological progress, the value and importance of staffing strategic efficiency (SE), which they implemented is determined by a system of balanced qualitative and quantitative indicators (Bondarenko, 2016). In order to eliminate duplicate indicators or provide excessive and incorrectly structured information, it is necessary to develop an optimal system of indicators, which is a ready methodological tool for assessing the staffing of the project, considering the specifics of the industry and the characteristics of the activities of enterprises participating in project cooperation. In this regard, in the scientific environment there is a demand for research related to the assessment of the development level of the personnel structural characteristics of the SE project on the creation of high-tech products in the aviation industry, the results of which will serve to guide the base of management decisions.

It is necessary to develop and present a methodology for assessing the development level of the personnel structural characteristics of the strategic project effectiveness to create high-tech products, considering the peculiarities of the aviation industry.

2. Theoretical basis

Theoretical foundations of sustainable development of enterprises, countries and regions have become one of the most popular and studied at the moment. These issues devoted to the work of scientist such as Iskakov N., Chimitova A. B, Mikulchinova E. A., Bautin V. M., Serebryakova N. A., Sidorov, V. M., etc. (Iskakov, 2008; Chimitova,Mikulchinova, 2007; Bautin, Serebryakova,Sidorov, 2011). The evaluation of investment, commercial, budgetary, social, labour efficiency is devoted to the work of the following authors: Daft R., Adamchuk V. V., Lapygin Yu. N., Lapygin D. Yu.,Chinenov M. V. (Daft, 2017; Adamchuk, 2012; Lapygin, 2009; Lapygin, 2009; Chinenov, 2016). At the same time, only two authors (Ermolina L. V. and Hussein L. M.) show a new type of efficiency "strategic efficiency" and consider it in the context of the enterprise (Ermolina, 2015; Hussein, 2018). Assessment method of investment projects are devoted to the work of Krylov E. I., Vlasova V. M., Zhuravkova I. V., Lapygin D. Yu., Lapygin Yu. N., Chinenova M. V. (Krylov, Vlasova,Zhuravkova, 2006; Lapygin et al., 2009; Chinenov, 2016). In the modern literature there are no scientific papers on the issue of assessing the strategic effectiveness of the project to create high-tech products and assess its structural and personnel characteristics.

3. Methodology

 

Criteria for recognition of goods, works and services, high-tech products and their full list was approved by the order of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia (Order of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia № 1618, 2012). In the process of forming a balanced system of qualitative and quantitative indicators to assess the development level of the structural characteristics of the SE project, we used the following features of the selection of indicators (table 2):

In the process of analysis of the staffing it is proposed to allocate periods of recession, sharp growth and the period of increase. It is also proposed to analyze the time levels: past, present and future. The author proposes to assess the personnel structural characteristics of the SE project using the following indicators (table 3-5):

Assessment method of the development level of personnel structural characteristics of the SE project to create high-tech products in the aviation industry includes the following four main stages:

1. Classification of structural elements of the object of production (high-tech products) for functional purpose.

2. Classification of the process of creating high-tech products:

– stage of production and primary assembly of purchased components;

– final build stage.

In this regard, the personnel of the structural characteristics of the SE of the project is characterized by:

– development level of quality of work of personnel with materials;

– development level of quality of work of personnel on production and assembly of knots and units;

– development level of staffing of the final assembly.

3. Classification of structural elements of high-tech products, considering the development level of personnel support of the project (scale of assessments):

1 – low development level;

2 – average development level;

3 – development level above the average;

4 – the highest development level.

4. Assessment of the quality of the structural elements of high-tech products and the development level of staffing, considering the degree of country risk using the point method is carried out in several stages:

4. Results

Practical implementation of the method of assessment of the development level of staffing were done according to the project of creation of the composite wing of the MC-21, the production site of which is the Joint Stock Company "AeroComposite-Ulyanovsk". The main customer is JSC Irkut Corporation. The company is equipped with modern automated equipment developed in accordance with the requirements of "AeroComposite" (Official website of Joint Stock Company "AeroComposite", 2019). Modern polycomposite structural materials are used in the production of structural elements.

Using the system of proposed indicators and formulas 2-3, we determined a comprehensive assessment of the development level of personnel support for the creation of a composite wing at the production stage (1.49) and at the final assembly stage (3.3). Further, using formula 4, we determined a comprehensive assessment of the development level of staffing of the creation of the composite wing at the stage of final assembly (1.53). The obtained estimate in the amount of 1.53 belongs to the category 2 – the average development level of the personnel structural characteristics of the SE project to create a composite wing for the passenger medium-haul aircraft MC-21-300. We consider weak staffing of the first production stage, which can affect the effectiveness of the project as a whole.

Thus, this technique provides a comprehensive technical and economic assessment of the development level of personnel support of structural elements of high-tech products and the production facility as a whole, which affects the formation of the SE project, considering the factor of territorial production and assembly, which has no analogues.

5. Discussion

As a result of the study, there is an actual, significant methodology for assessing the development level of the personnel structural characteristics of the SE project for the creation of high-tech products in the aviation industry, used to improve the efficiency of management decisions at the strategic planning level. It is advisable in further studies to develop a mechanism for assessing the strategic effectiveness of projects for the creation of high-tech products in the aviation industry, a feature of which is the ability to plan the direction of development of the personnel structural characteristics of the SE project.

6. Conclusions

The research studied the current state and development trends for 2011-2017, characterizing the staffing of the aircraft sector of the Russian aviation industry. The personnel component of the problem of analysis of strategic efficiency of projects of industrial enterprises for the creation of high-tech products is substantiated. The balanced system of indicators of an assessment of development level of staffing of projects is proved. Specific features of personnel support of projects of the aviation industry of the Russian Federation are reflected. There is a method of assessing of the development level of personnel structural characteristics of the strategic effectiveness of the project to create high-tech products in the aviation industry, considering the factor of their territorial production and assembly. Practical realization of the methodology for assessing of the development level of the personnel structural characteristics of the strategic effectiveness of the project to create a composite wing for the passenger medium-haul aircraft MC-21-300 is carried out. Thus, the presented method considered the territorial factor of production and assembly of products and it is used to increase the effectiveness of management decisions at the level of strategic planning.
