Subject. The article addresses the development of a methodology for seeking reserves to increase production capacity through the enhanced balance of production system and bringing the latter to practical use at iron and steel enterprises. Objectives. The purpose is to design a methodology to search for reserves to enhance production capacity of industrial enterprises at the strategic level, using the graph-matrix models of integrated steel works. Methods. The study draws on methods of analysis and synthesis, principles of consistency and complexity, the graph theory, and matrix calculus. Results. The paper offers a method for assessing and analyzing reserves to increase production capacity through enhancing the balance of the production system. Conclusions. If used, the presented approach will help improve the quality of strategic management of production facilities in the iron and steel industry, and, as a result, the profitability and competitiveness of ironworks.
Keywords: production capacity, iron and steel industry, strategic management, production unit, connectivity
