Development of a System for Managing Material Resources of the Information Technology Infrastructure of University Departments

The article studies the problem of prospects for the development of material and technical base of educational institutions in accordance with modern educational technologies and the growing digitalization of the educational process. The problem of improving the quality of work of IT-service of higher education institution is defined, which is expressed in insufficiently effective management of the process of stock formation and its distribution. The article studies the systemic problems of improving the efficiency of educational institutions. by introducing into the process of maintaining the serviceability of HEI methods and means that ensure effective and timely supply of material and technical resources of information technology infrastructure of its departments. We propose a model for choosing the most rational system of forming stocks of materials and components and organizing the management of logistics flows on the basis of a decision support system that uses methods for determining the composition of material resources procurement, taking into account the design and technological characteristics of purchased equipment. Using classical models of demand and supply as an invariant to build models adequate to real logistic schemes, as well as assuming the possibility of «pre-order» and, as a consequence, statistically unjustified displacement of the order point, the authors consider the model of the decision-making process on the formation of «advance order» as a means of reducing the probability of risks of disruption of the educational process and improving the efficiency of material resources of the information technology system. The possibility of realization in the structure of the digital ecosystem of higher education institution of the component of planning and forecasting of «distribution resources» based on the data of qualitative monitoring of the dynamics of consumption of storage objects and differentiated accounting is considered.
