Abstract

The aim of this work is to determine the production function using the method of complex-valued economics as a criterion for the management of the centralized heat supply of a city. This paper used the methodology of using stepped production functions of complex variables with real coefficients as a tool to perform dynamic analysis and forecasting of production results, allowing the performance of Manufacturing Execution System tasks of the heat supply system to be tracked. Based on this, a justified selection of a management criterion was made, objectively reflecting both the passive and active components of the administrative and economic activities of the heat supply enterprise. A comparative analysis of production functions was conducted to identify a predictive model for resource provision in the process of heat energy generation. A predictive model of resource provision was developed based on the capital/labor ratio of the enterprise, using a production function with complex variables. In other words, determining the production function allows the analysis of both the quantity and quality of resources used to produce 1 Gcal of energy, as well as the forecast of resource procurement to ensure a reliable and cost-effective heat supply.
