The impact of globalisation processes on supply chain management

The functioning and proliferation of global value chains are becoming increasingly important in supply chain management operations. The study aims to identify the drivers of value-added growth as a key indicator of effective global supply chain management. This study provides an opportunity to compare the most influential factors of successful supply chain management through the prism of value added in Russia, China, Japan, Saudi Arabia, Switzerland, and the USA. A comparative economic-mathematical analysis of the influence of variables determining the degree of a country’s inclusion in global value chains was conducted. On this basis, it was proved that the IT sphere can become a competitive advantage for Russia and a prerequisite for inclusion in global value chains. Based on the assessment of supply chain management effectiveness in the context of inclusion in global value chains, it is found that the effectiveness of countries’ participation in them is determined by several drivers. Within the framework of global value chains, there is a change in the mechanism of international competition, in which each of the participants of global chains is interested in the efficiency and success of partners.
