STRATEGIC GOALS AND QUALITATIVE PROGRESS INDICATORS OF THE PROCESS OF NEO-INDUSTRIALISATION OF THE MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY IN UKRAINE

Research subject. The article describes a system of strategic objectives and quality metrics associated with the development of neo-industrialisation processes in the manufacturing industry of Ukraine. The article shows that the implementation of the strategic and operational goals of the state policy requires the implementation of a set of measures, the main of which is the determination of the priority areas of the state policy in terms of innovative development and the creation of a "core" of new industries, which are prioritized in the development of high-tech entrepreneurship and increased export potential of the processing industry of Ukraine. Methodology. The scientific research is derived from a systematic approach to the analysis of the entire landscape of neo-industrialisation, which includes the survey of the current state of the industries, the establishment of metrics and methodological tools for the implementation of the development policy of the manufacturing industry. The proposed approach is derived from a combination of economic data analysis, expert opinion and forecasting. Purpose. The aim of the study is to formalise the methods and to justify the steps necessary for the implementation of a neo-industrial strategy that focuses on the technological modernisation of the manufacturing industry, increasing the competitiveness of the national economy and its technological integration into global processes. Conclusion of the study. The article develops the primary objectives of operational importance associated with the achievement of strategic goals in the manufacturing industry, namely the modernisation of infrastructure, the digitalisation of the economy and the creation of conditions for the integration of high-tech innovations into production processes. The article presents the formation and practice of calculation of the regional index of quality progress of the process of neo-industrialisation of the processing industry with the structure and the algorithm of its formation. It is proved that the structure of the index should be formed by indicators consisting of institutional, structural and functional components of processes of neo-industrial modernisation of regional industrial and economic complexes. The article presents the development of tools for the analysis of the effectiveness of state and local economic policy measures, visualisation and analysis of planned and actual values of key indicators of neo-industrialisation. The authors propose a strategic approach to the interaction between the state, business and scientific institutions in order to ensure a symbiotic effect for the neo-industrial development of the manufacturing industry.
