Categorical Methodology in Business Design Tools
When economic theory and business models are lagging in relation to practice, there is a need to form business designers ahead of practice, defining specific directions, strategies, algorithms for running a separate business, and accurately predicting its results. With the expansion of the project approach to the field of business, the question arises of how to make this business more efficient by involving natural and artificial intelligence resources. Consider a business constructor as a business design tool. A business designer is a set of components from which a business model and project are formed, and their features are determined by the content of a particular business, the specifics of its development stage, and a set of internal and external conditions. The business designer occupies an intermediary position between business analytics and real business. We will associate the deployment of ideas about the business designer with the application of a categorical methodology in it. In this sense, an organizational and business game, Insafing, will be organized, reviewed and analyzed, which can be applied to business design. The use of the following shows promise: categorical methodology, including: categorical system methodology (KSM), theory of dynamic information systems (TDIS). In economics, a discrepancy between theory and practice is common. This discrepancy is overcome in Insafing, which can be a theoretical component of a business designer, along with the use of KSM, TDIS. Insafing is capable of becoming a business engineering tool. One of the problems of modern business is the difficulty of introducing new intellectual products in it. The direction of modernization (digitalization, artificial intelligence, automation) contributes to the entry of business to a new intellectual level. Digitalization can contribute to this. The article shows how digital encoding allows one to implement business design and modeling. A business constructor is proposed, a design that provides for the design of categorical schemes corresponding to specific business tasks. It is shown that the design of a business is quite consistent with developments in the categorical methodology. It is convenient to start with fairly general categories, which we have done with the help of a Universal Conceptualizer (UC). The use of the UC allowed us to generate many categories that already characterize the business directly, then TDIS and KSM were applied, giving models and other theoretical constructions a predictive character.
