Hello! My name is Artyom, I am 18 years old, I am a student of the Kyrgyz-German Technical Institute. For a very long time I couldn’t decide on the choice of my future profession. I rushed back and forth in various fields of different universities, from a programmer to a logistician. From the 10th grade, I began to think about who I would become, what I would do. Nowadays, it’s very important to find the business that you like and for which you will be paid good money. A lot of people take an awkward step in their lives, choosing the path along which they will go all their lives. I decided to approach this issue with special responsibility. Studying the Internet, in search of my future specialty, I could not find “that one” among thousands. And then I lined up several important points in front of me: 1) The profession should be well-paid; 2) It shouldn’t be harmful to health, because the more we can live, the more we can earn, right; 3) Work should be related to negotiations, communication, because it's cool, you see, to work with different interesting people, even with foreigners; 4) The profession must be in demand; 5) You must like it, you must love it, and then it will love you. As you already understood, I chose logistics. I think this specialty is perfect for me according to these criteria. Soon I found out everything in detail about this activity what is and what's it for? And I liked this filed of profession. In the future, I believe that I will be able to make my own contribution to this huge transport industry, make them more profitable, more environmentally friendly, cheaper, faster, and become a good specialist in demand.

3-rd grade master – students,Kyrgyz State Technical University named after I.Razzakov,Department of Logistics,Scientific supervisor – Umetaliev Akylbek Saparbekovichdoctor of economics, professor Abstract: the article discusses the prospects for the development of trade and logistics centers in the Kyrgyz Republic. Keywords: TLC, agriculture, storage, logistics, warehousing. The infrastructure of the food market ensures the formation of material, financial and information links between market entities and is a set of objects and institutional structures. The market infrastructure unites the spheres of production, circulation and consumption into a single chain, accelerates the turnover of material, financial and information flows in the economy, contributing to an increase in the efficiency of social development.Market infrastructure includes such substructures as systems of trade and intermediary activities; warehouse facilities; information support; packaging industry; transport service; financial, credit and organizational support; economic and legal regulation of market participants, etc. In connection with the development of market relations, tangible changes are taking place in the trade and intermediary infrastructure. First of all, the nature and purpose of intermediary and sales structures is changing, network trade structures, wholesale and retail associations, trade and logistics centers (TLC) come to the fore. Currently, trade, purchasing, as well as sales of produced agricultural products in the Kyrgyz Republic are spontaneous, mainly grown agricultural products are sold in large, medium and small open-type markets. In these markets, sanitary, veterinary standards and requirements are not observed, there are no laboratories for express analyzes. In the meat and vegetable pavilions, where there is an intensive sale of food products, there is unsanitary conditions, especially in the summer season. One of the directions for solving the problem related to the sale of products and protecting the interests of manufacturers and buyers is the creation of a TLC network across the republic. In addition, the need for the development of a modern TLC network is associated with the provision of the country's population with high-quality food products and the further marketing of domestic agricultural products for export. The Trade and Logistics Center is a special center for the provision of transport, logistics and processing and transit services for local and international manufacturers, carried out on a commercial basis by various operators. The developed TLC system shortens the supply chain, optimizes the flow of goods, and increases the maneuverability of supplies. TLC allows to significantly reduce the time interval between the purchase of raw materials and semi-finished products and the delivery of the finished product to the consumer with the lowest financial costs, contributes to a sharp reduction in inventories, accelerates the process of obtaining information, increases the level of service. The maximum effect for the optimal organization of commodity flows can be achieved only with the correct integration of LCs into logistics networks. At the moment, there are 12 logistics centers on the territory of the regions, including in the Chui region - 6 of which 3 logistics centers are temporarily not working, Issyk-Kul region - 1, Batken region-1, Osh region - 2, Talas region -1 and Jalal-Abad region - 4. For the further development of the TLC on the territory of the Kyrgyz Republic, it is planned to build 23 more logistics centers.Speaking about the prospects for the development of these TLCs, it should be noted that agriculture in Kyrgyzstan is one of the leading sectors of the economy. Over 65% of the population of Kyrgyzstan lives in rural areas, respectively, engaged in agriculture. In the total volume of the country's gross domestic product, the share of agriculture is a significant part - about 24%. The creation and development of trade and logistics centers is one of the main and promising areas in agriculture, because this will help develop the country's export potential and cross-border trade. By using trade and logistics centers for storing vegetables and fruits, using environmentally friendly and modern agricultural technologies, Kyrgyz rural producers can make optimal use of agricultural resources and form highly productive and environmentally sustainable agricultural systems. The problem of the TLC's work is not in full force is not analyzing and forecasting the market and not taking into account priorities, i.e. farmers use the sown area inappropriately and suffer losses. Nobody develops recommendations for them on the cultivation of one or another of the types of crops. Also, due to the poor-quality operation of logistics centers, there is a problem with the sale of collected products. Most farmers sell their products to small wholesalers at low prices, who in turn sell themselves. Often, not every wholesale intermediary has the ability to export their goods. In this regard, he also bears losses. To solve these problems, more and more trade and logistics centers are being opened in Kyrgyzstan. However, opening a logistics center is half the battle; it is also necessary to use the available resources correctly and interact with wholesale suppliers and farmers for the centers to operate efficiently. According to the concept of development of the TLC in the Kyrgyz Republic, the centers are aimed at reducing the costs of agricultural producers associated with the storage, distribution and transportation of grown fruits and vegetables. With proper storage, optimal distribution and centralized procedures for customs clearance of exports, the price of products can actually decrease by an average of 30-50%. If we take into account that in the pricing chain from the producer to the final consumer, the losses of perishable fruits and vegetables and processed products reach 40%, then the construction and development of local or regional, as well as international TLCs will reduce these losses to 10-15% of all grown products. The development of a TLC and a trade and transport system for the distribution of raw materials, products and foodstuffs will make it possible to comprehensively solve the following main tasks: - an increase in the income of the rural population and an improvement in the quality of life of agricultural producers; - increasing the level of employment of the rural population, preserving and creating new high-tech jobs: - increasing the volume of supplies of agricultural products and meeting the population's demand for food in the winter and spring periods; - export growth and effective use of transit potential, favorable geopolitical location of the country and advantages in the form of highways, railways and air corridors; - providing the EAEU requirements for agricultural products of the Kyrgyz Republic and improving the veterinary, phytosanitary and sanitary situation. In conclusion, it can also be noted that the full implementation of the goals for the construction and development of the TLC in the Kyrgyz Republic and the optimal integration of the LC into a single logistics network will lead to the following: - The TLC will act as an information and service hub for the relevant participants; - consolidates small individual deliveries in large batches of standardized products with a single packaging for large-scale buyers; - supporting international trade and facilitating the movement of goods along international corridors through the modernization of logistics capabilities, interconnection of networks and multimodal (mixed) transport; - export growth, increasing the efficiency of the agro-industrial complex and ensuring food security of the state; - farmers will have the opportunity of guaranteed sales of their products in accordance with contractual obligations with the Center. Thus, the creation of a TLC system for agricultural products improves the market infrastructure, encourages the development of the agricultural sector and an increase in the export potential of Kyrgyzstan.

I believe that logistics has a very important role in my profession, because logistics is the management of the processes of transferring goods or services from suppliers to consumers. Logistics is an integral part of food production; it performs all processes for the movement of raw materials, finished products and materials to optimize production and reduce costs. Solves issues with the transportation of finished products and is responsible for building a route. After the quality of the product itself, the logistics system follows. After all, this system ensures production with minimal costs, but with maximum profit. My profession has an important role in human life. Because the correct consumption of food is one of the important factors in determining human health. I believe that in Kyrgyzstan there are many problems in this area, such as the production of products with the addition of modified substances, improper storage, poor control of the safety and quality of products. Since childhood, I have met many cases when groceries, expired food has sold in stores, and as a result, people acquired various diseases. That is why I decided to study therefore the direction in order to solve problems and give people confidence in the safety and quality of food. Any industrial firm striving to achieve high efficiency in procurement, production, warehousing, storage and formation of stocks of material and technical resources, as well as the distribution of the final finished product, must have a properly organized logistics service. Now, logistics makes it possible not only to increase the efficiency of the functioning of various companies, but also to regulate all their structures. This science plays an important role for buyers, suppliers, as well as owners and shareholders. We can say that logistics covers almost all the activities of an organization: from controlling all kinds of costs to selling the product itself. The application of the concepts of this science will allow you to significantly reduce costs and increase competitiveness among other enterprises.

According to modern requirements, we need to develop ourselves by acquiring knowledge in many areas. Because today we need to be able to meet the demands of the times. I am currently studying in the field of food technology profession. I chose this industry because I want to produce quality, healthy, especially original food for the future. Yes, education is like digging a well with a needle. Education here is in great demand. We also need to dig into other fields and bring together a lot of information that we need in order to effectively develop and advance our profession in the future without learning in our field. One of them is logistics. Logistics is a cliché. Translated from the Greek, "logistic" means the art of calculation, reasoning, thinking, and creating. I learned that logistics is the number one industry I need in my profession. Because I knew that with this industry, I could produce and sell my workplace, my own product or my own small company in the right quantity, with the right quality, in the right place, at the right time, for the right consumption, at the lowest cost. One of the main goals of logistics is to increase the efficiency of the economic system through the management of logistics processes.

The food industry, which I choose as my professional activity, is one of the foundations of the existence of society. Nutrition and provision of reserves for the people - that is task of society. Many centuries ago, a person concluded that the raw materials that agriculture and animal husbandry give us must be able to properly procure, prepare and store. This is what food technologists are doing. Why did I stop at this profession? I was interested in many areas into which the food industry is subdivided. Milk and bread, meat and fish, vegetables and fruits, confectionery and drinks are the main branches of food production. The technologist is in charge of the entire process of processing, preparation and storage of products. It all starts with determining the quality and selection of raw materials. Than follows by the creation of recipes and building the cooking process, be it drying, freezing, conservation or cooking. The process ends with the selection of containers and storage conditions for food products. This requires precision and creativity, which have become part of my interest in the profession. What is the role of logistics in my future profession? The role of logistics in food production is primarily has aimed at providing the enterprise with reliable information about suppliers, customers, the structure and dynamics of demand, tastes, desires and preferences of consumers. Logistics should start by looking at customers, suppliers and demand levels. The object of the study is also the technical equipment of enterprises producing homogeneous products and their sales markets. A modern technologist must think not only about the safe production of food products, but also about the profitable sale of products. This is the role of logistics in my profession. The manufactured goods must be competitive, delivered and sold in the shortest possible time, without damage and damage to the products, in compliance with all norms and standards. Knowledge of logistics helps to calculate the place, time and relevance, marketability of a given product in a particular region. A technologist who understands the intricacies of logistics will always satisfy any demand and supply of even the most sophisticated consumer.

I began to think about my future profession early enough. Since childhood, she loved to watch various culinary programs, documentaries about food and everything related to food. All this that I saw aroused deep interest and passion to create something of my own “my own food products”. Therefore, my choice fell on the profession of a technologist of canning production. A technologist is a specialist who develops a systematic technology for manufacturing a product. He monitors and controls the quality of raw materials, already manufactured products, makes calculations, prepares the necessary documentation, if a defect occurs, he finds the reasons for its occurrence and monitors compliance with safety measures. Such a specialist must have organizational skills, for example: when ordering and transporting the necessary raw materials and accepting them, with an accurate mathematical mind so that, the created product was competitive and had a good market demand. In the future, as a specialist, I must control the entire stage in the enterprise, so that production works smoothly, you need to provide it with raw materials, and for the receipt and storage of raw materials, a warehouse has needed, this is where the logical system begins. Logistics is the transportation of goods, the movement of goods from consumer to supplier, or a simpler interpretation of the “logic of optimal movement of goods”. Material management inside and outside the enterprise. Production logistics - ensuring high quality, timely production of products, reducing the production cycle and optimizing production costs. Therefore, logistics covers the entire range of enterprise activities: planning, implementation, cost control, movement and storage of enterprise materials. Nowadays, logistics is an integral part of the service, even if we produce an excellent product and if we do not know how to correct, timely and accurately deliver it to the desired point to the consumer, then the rest of the production cycle completely loses its meaning.

In a modern society, where technological progress is in tandem with time, where changes are taking place in all spheres of life, it is necessary to have a modern and in-demand profession. The choice of my profession was not a spontaneous decision, because in this stream of development, many professions began to lose their relevance. In addition, after weighing it, I chose the profession of a technologist, a canning technologist. The health of a person, and of the entire population, depends on the food consumed, on its benefits and harms. The work of a technologist includes a range of works on which the quality and safety of manufactured products depends. After technological processes, logistics takes an important place. Indeed, in order for our production to be profitable and in demand in the market, a good logistics system has needed. It is one of the important tools in improving the work of the enterprise. Since it directly interacts with the consumer. Logistics in general terms is the planning, implementation and control of technological and economic processes of moving finished products from the manufacturer to the consumer. It turns out that after the quality of the product itself, it is the logistics system that follows, because it is system that ensures production with minimal costs, but with maximum profit. Competitiveness in the market directly depends on the system of logistic servicing of consumer orders. She must be aware of new market demands and try to match the desires of consumers as much as possible. Besides all this, the main goal of the logistics system is the safe delivery of products in a short time, on time and at the lowest cost. All these factors prove to us that the role of logistics in food production is very important. It is a strong bridge between producer and consumer. Without a good logistics system, without a well-thought-out plan, it will be extremely difficult to break through in today's market. The successful functioning of the enterprise, its profitability, competitiveness and stable position in the market, all this is the result of a good work of the logistics system. Moreover, all this is an irrefutable proof of the importance of logistics in my profession. In addition, in the future, when I become a certified specialist and go to an enterprise, I will definitely focus on the logistics system. Since she will determine the demand for my products in the market.

Each person at a certain moment in his life has faced with the question of choosing his future profession, which will affect the course of his life. Moreover, if someone, being still a child who is just learning to perceive the world around him already knows who he will become in the future, and someone, even after graduating from school and holding a certificate with an ORT certificate, does not know who he wants to become. As for me, I, like many other people, did not immediately decide to become a food technologist. As a child, I wanted to become a lawyer, after that I wanted to become a doctor who saves lives, but by the time I got older I realized that all this was not mine, that I wanted to work in production, produce various products, and also create and invent my own assortments. Then I decided that I would become a food technologist and take part in providing the population with food products. However, choosing this profession, I could not even think about the connection between logistics and the profession of a technologist. What is this connection? In order to answer this question, let us first look at the definitions of these two concepts. "Logistics is the science of organizing, planning, controlling and regulating the movement of material and information flows in space and in time from their primary source to the final consumer." At first glance, there is nothing in common between "logistics" and "food technologist", but if you think about it and look from the other side, you can determine the relationship between them. Let us look at this. Firstly, as we already understood, logistics deals with processes that ensure the delivery of goods from manufacturer to consumer. In addition, in our case, the food production technologist ensures the production of products, and with the help of logistics, the turnover of products from the manufacturer to the end consumer has carried out, and the export of products has ensured. Secondly, production requires primary raw materials, which have delivered to the plant or warehouse using logistics, which guarantees the delivery of goods in the right quantity and at the right time. And thirdly, the logistics of the food industry is responsible for planning and developing modes of storing finished products in warehouses before being sent to store shelves, and then into the hands of the consumer. Thus, we realized that the subject of "logistics" is the most important and integral part of food production. A food technologist must have logistic skills in order to ensure a high-quality market turnover of products.

a third-year student in Iskhak Razakov Kyrgyz-German Technical Insitute, KGTI, Logistic Annotation: The article discusses the rules of public procurement according to the procurement methods. Keywords: Law "On Public Procurement of the Kyrgyz Republic", web portal of public procurement,, procurement methods. According to the Law "On Public Procurement of the Kyrgyz Republic", 1. Public procurement of goods, works and services is carried out by the following methods: single-step; two-stage; simplified; to lower the price; direct conclusion of the contract. 1) Single-stage competition: The main method of public procurement is a single-stage competition. When conducting a one-stage tender, the number of suppliers (contractors) willing to participate in procurement procedures is not limited. A single-stage tender for the purchase of goods, works and services is the main method and is used if, in addition to the price, it is necessary to establish quality criteria. 2) Competition by two-stage method: 2.1.) A two-stage tender is held if: a) the procuring entity cannot determine in advance the specific, technical characteristics and quality indicators of the purchased goods, works or services and this requires discussion with suppliers (contractors) to make a decision that best meets the procurement needs of the procuring entity; b) the subject of procurement is research, experiment, preparation of a scientific conclusion or provision of other specialized services. 2.2.) The tender is conducted in two stages using the two-stage method, and: a) at the first stage, suppliers (contractors) are invited to submit initial bids containing their proposals without specifying the bid price in the tender documentation. The tender documentation should consist only of the technical, quality or operational characteristics of the subject of procurement, as well as the contractual terms of delivery and the qualification data of suppliers (contractors); (b) In the first stage, the procuring entity may hold discussions with suppliers or contractors whose initial bids were not rejected in accordance with the provisions of this Law on any aspect of their initial bids. If the procuring entity conducts discussions with a supplier or contractor separately or jointly, it shall ensure that all suppliers or contractors participate in such discussions under the same conditions. Discussion separately with each supplier (contractor) is allowed only in cases where joint discussions are detrimental to the legitimate commercial interests of the supplier (contractor) or hinder fair competition; c) based on the results of the first stage, a protocol is drawn up, which specifies information about the place, date and time of the first stage of the two-stage competition, the name (for a legal entity), surname, first name, patronymic (if any) (for an individual) and the address of each participant; d) if at the end of the deadline for submitting applications for the first stage only one application has been submitted or no applications have been submitted, the two-stage competition is declared invalid; e) in the second stage of the two-stage tender procedures, the procuring entity invites all suppliers or contractors whose initial bids were not rejected in the first stage to submit final bids with prices, taking into account the revised terms of procurement; (e) The procuring entity is prohibited from changing the subject matter of the procurement, but is permitted to clarify aspects of the description of the subject matter of the procurement by: 1) the exclusion or modification of any aspect of the originally specified technical, quality or operational characteristics of the subject of procurement and the addition of any new characteristics that meet the requirements of this Law; 2) the exclusion or modification of any originally specified criteria for the consideration or evaluation of bids, or including new criteria that meet the requirements of this Law, if these criteria relate to changes in the technical, quality or operational characteristics of the subject of procurement; 3) notification of any exclusion, change or inclusion to suppliers or contractors in the invitation to submit final bids. 2.3.) The contest participants are subject to the same requirements. The winner of the competition is the tender application that participated in both stages and offered the best conditions for the performance of the contract. 2.4.) If, at the end of the deadline for submitting final applications for participation in the two-stage method, only one such application has been submitted or no such application has been submitted, or only one such application has been found to comply with the requirements of this Law and the tender documentation, or the tender commission has rejected all such applications, the two-stage tender shall be declared invalid. 3. Competition by the simplified method: 3.1.) The simplified tender method is used in the case of purchases of finished goods that do not require special manufacturing, works and services with a specific description for an amount less than the maximum threshold amount. 3.2). When conducting a tender by a simplified method, in order to ensure competition and effective selection, the procuring entity considers the bids for goods, works and services of at least two suppliers (contractors). Each supplier (contractor) is allowed to submit only one tender application and is not allowed to change it. No negotiations shall take place between the procuring entity and the supplier or contractor with respect to the tender submitted by that supplier or contractor. The winning bid is considered to be the acceptable bid with the lowest price that meets the needs of the procuring entity. 4. Competition by the method of lowering the price: 4.1.) The procedure for conducting the competition by the method of lowering the price is determined by the Government of the Kyrgyz Republic. 4.2.) The procuring entity may purchase goods and services using the reduced price method: a) if these goods and services have established quality standards and a specific description of the services; b) if there is a competitive market of at least three suppliers to ensure effective competition. 4.3.) The competition of the method for lowering the price is conducted through the web portal of public procurement in real time, where the purchasing organization sets the initial price that is ready to pay for the product or service, and suppliers offer their price offers, gradually reducing the price bar. 4.4.) The criteria used by the procuring entity in determining the winner of the tender must be expressed in quantitative and monetary terms. 4.5.) The winner of the competition by the method of lowering the price is the supplier who offered the lowest price offer. If the lowest price offer is submitted by several suppliers, the winner is the supplier whose offer was received earlier than the offers of other suppliers. 5. Direct contract procurement: Procurement by direct conclusion of a contract - a public procurement procedure in which the procuring entity signs a procurement contract after monitoring prices among the received applications (proposals) on the web portal (with the exception of paragraphs 6, 11, 15 and 17 of part 4 of this article) or in the electronic catalog of the web portal. If the web portal has not received applications (proposals), purchases are made by conducting repeated monitoring by requesting applications (proposals) in paper form. The procuring entity may require suppliers or contractors to sign a declaration guaranteeing the application. The supplier (contractor) must meet the qualification requirements established by the procuring entity, provided for in article 27 of this Law. Depending on the above methods of procurement, you can highlight the main points and the rules of public procurement in the following table: Table 1: Procurement methods Number of participants Allocated amount Emphasis, preference, or priority The notification must be confirmed by the supplier Confirmation by the procuring entity Period of silence single-stage ∞ ∞ If you need to set other criteria in addition to the price, a price quote is made at the end During the 1st calendar day Within 3 business days Not earlier than 10 calendar days and not more than 30 calendar days two-stage At least 2 participants ∞ 1-stage compliance with the qualification requirements and compliance with the technical specification, 2-stage price quotation During the 1st calendar day Within 3 business days Not earlier than 10 calendar days and not more than 30 calendar days simplified At least 2 participants Up to the maximum threshold amount for each item of expenditure during the year The winning bid is considered the acceptable bid with the lowest price, Price then quality During the 1st calendar day Within 1 business day Not earlier than 10 calendar days and not more than 30 calendar days to lower the price At least 3 participants ∞ The winner of the competition is the supplier who offered the lowest price offer During the 1st calendar day Within 1 business day Not earlier than 10 calendar days and not more than 30 calendar days direct conclusion of the contract ∞ Up to the minimum threshold amount or ∞ Price or quality During the 1st calendar day Within 1 business day Within 3 business days In all procurement methods, the contract is concluded before the end of the validity period of the bidder's bid. All of the above methods of procurement are used for the purchase of such types of purchases as: goods, work, service. When making purchases, from the moment of creation and publication of the tender until the conclusion of the contract with the winning participant and the successful completion of this contract, compliance with the rules and regulations of procurement is mandatory, according to the Law "On Public Procurement".

My future work is related to food production. Nutrition is necessary for our life, so this type of activity can be considered in demand. This profession is good for starting a business. Logistics is the management of the processes of transferring goods or services from suppliers to consumers. The transfer should be carried out at the optimal time on favorable terms. Logistics is an integral part of food products, it performs all processes for the movement of raw materials, finished products and materials to optimize production and reduce costs. It is worth noting that for the successful promotion of a business, logistics is engaged in the delivery of goods abroad with all the accompanying processes, which contributes to the growth of sales outside the country that produced the product. This means that production needs logistics activities not only within the enterprise, but also outside it. It also makes it possible to deliver products, and to those places where, due to climatic conditions, residents of such an area have a problem in their diet due to the lack of certain products. The role of logistics in production ends not only with the transportation of products, but also with the study of the market, as well as consumer demand, which contributes to the improvement of the food industry or the introduction of new technologies. Manufacturers produce products for consumers, the whole business is based on this. And of course, logisticians know best about the desires of the latter, and this knowledge helps to change, transform, improve all the activities of technologists. The logistics department in any enterprise is created to improve work, optimize core processes and increase profits, as well as productivity.

As a child, I tried on different professions from an astronaut - the first to set foot on Mars, to an archaeologist who unravels new secrets of former civilizations. But by the tenth grade, my ambitions had subsided a little and from a small list of professions relevant to the present day, my choice fell on - a canning technologist. The profession of a technologist is relevant today, and with proper professional competence, food technologists receive a good salary. Since many now live according to the principle "time = money" and fewer and fewer people are engaged in home canning, preferring to buy a finished product from the shelves. And in order to bring this product to the shelves, you need the skills of a good logistician. I believe that a technologist must study logistics without fail, because often the technologist's work also includes organizational responsibilities, such as ordering and storing raw materials, storing finished products, etc. For canned products, it is important to observe many parameters during storage and transportation, otherwise, for example, an increase in temperature by at least one degree from the norm can lead to damage to all products, and there are a lot of such parameters - humidity, light, pressure, container in which the product is packed and even the distance of the product from the wall. And having the skills of a logistician, I will be able to competently organize the storage of products and raw materials, production flows and delivery of products to the shelves so that at the lowest cost we get the maximum profit and high-quality, and most importantly, safe products. As our teachers say: "Nobody knows your products better than you." Therefore, logistics skills will be a good plus in my resume when applying for a job, and even for myself it will allow me to improve the production of my products, make them better and more useful for the consumer, and most importantly, optimize production flows so that my product is always on the shelves. The development of the food industry does not stand still, therefore, for a specialist working in this area; it is important to regularly refresh his knowledge and acquire new skills. So that the manufactured product meets all food standards and, most importantly, is useful for consumers.

There are quite a few such professions. But the main thing is that it is not enough to choose the right areas of activity, you have to study hard and master the basics of the profession, striving for real professionalism in your field. And so, I chose and studied different professions for a long time, and ultimately chose the profession - food technologist. This profession is not only in demand but also interesting. But in order to become a good technologist, you need to master a lot of knowledge and skills. A technologist must be versatile, know not only different sciences related to the technology of product production, but must be creative, be able to talk with people, and have leadership qualities, that is to know logistics! If we consider the role of logistics in production, then everyone will unanimously say that its role is enormous for the growth and development of production, because any production process at food processing enterprises begins with the acquisition of raw materials and material resources, which means from logistics. Logistics is the art of managing, planning, and also the ability to optimize production. Logistics in food production can contribute to strengthening the financial independence of an enterprise, improving management methods, and on the other hand, sustainable functioning. Meanwhile, the activities of food enterprises contribute to the solution of both economic and social problems to meet the needs of the population. At the enterprise level, the logistics system can supply and timely supply the production processes with the necessary resources. The implementation of this task is impossible without the activities of the industries of the production infrastructure: material and technical support, procurement, transport, communications, information industry, connects all links of the technological process, becomes an intermediary in the interaction of the manufacturer and the consumer, also provides storage and warehousing of production products. The effect of logistics is manifested in a high level of organization of production, which results in the saving of material and financial resources. These savings are reflected in the form of changes in indicators such as inventory levels, cycle times, capacity utilization rates, etc. In the modern world, people dream of a profession that brings joy, pleasure and decent pay.

This profession is very young. The last century in every enterprise there were specialist that implemented procurement activities and were called technical specialists or engineers. They performed various tasks related to calculating supply requirements, finding the necessary material solutions, establishing contacts with suppliers and much more. And as a result, they began to be called Buyers. Significant evolution has taken place over the past decades. As the history of the buying profession shows, before the role of specialists was reduced to a supporting or service function, sometimes they were called back-office. Unfortunately, the buyer's work was often not taken seriously, and this trend can still be traced. But the world does not stand still, and recently, buyers are increasingly required to work at a high strategic level. Today, there is a tendency to introduce procurement directors into the top management of the company, and without them important strategic decisions are not made. So far, this is not a mass phenomenon, but the trend is already encouraging, and I would like to hope that it will continue. This factor is one of the most important in the changing role of procurement in business. Therefore, I want to develop the profession of a buyer and therefore develop myself in it, as well as be one. It should also be noted how important professionalism and understanding of the essence of the purchased goods, works, services are. For example, materials and services need to be procured in different ways, in different ways to evaluate suppliers' proposals, to prepare technical specifications in different ways. This is especially evident when purchasing services. After unsuccessful attempts to purchase services according to the same principle as materials, conversations begin that the buyers do not understand anything, do not know, and destroy all ideas and ideas. As a result of such activities, business and internal customers complain: buyers only interfere, slow down, want to buy the cheapest and everything in the same spirit. The same is heard from suppliers and the market: as soon as buyers intervene, due to ignorance and lack of professionalism, they cannot evaluate ideas, creativity, the adequacy of services, it is just normal to compare services. That is why in such discussions one should insist on separating apples and oranges. It is impossible to classify all buyers as those who interfere with doing business. There are just unprofessional buyers who do not dive into the details and essence of the issues. This is another reason why I want to be in this area and in the future show by example that buyers are not a necessary part of logistics or business.

For us, logistics specialists, it is very important to carry out procurement, since material flow management is an integral part of the logistics itself. Any trading and manufacturing enterprises have a department that is responsible for purchasing and is called the procurement department. He is primarily concerned with establishing relationships with suppliers - coordinated relationships ensure a continuous flow of goods from the businesses that supply them. They also solve economic and planning issues. The very idea of logistics is to get additional profit from the coordination of actions of all participants. This idea requires supply personnel to achieve the goals of their own enterprise not as an isolated object, but as a link in the logistics system. It should pursue the goal of improving the efficiency and functioning of the entire logistics subsystem. The supply goal should be based on modern marketing concepts, first a sales strategy is developed, then, based on it, we should build a production development strategy, then a supply and procurement strategy. But in my opinion, marketing does not offer methods of systemic organization from the primary source of raw materials to the final consumer. The most effective functioning of the procurement department and the possibility of achieving goals to a significant extent depends on the very systematic organization of the procurement department. If I have to work in the procurement department, then I have to fulfill clear terms of procurement, adhere to time frames, fulfill the quantitative volume of procurement, procurement goods of exceptionally high quality, procurement all these resources at the lowest prices, with delivery, in the shortest possible time and at the lowest cost. for transportation and storage. Unfortunately, in Kyrgyzstan, the functioning of the procurement system is not fully established, since many firms continue to work, focusing on the time when all the resources in the country were not purchased, but distributed. I believe that when I graduate from the university, the “Purchasing logistics” profile, I will successfully cope with high-ranking tasks and will build the most effective ways of supplying my enterprise.

If we think for a moment about our favorite store or restaurant, the concept of logistics may not come to mind at first. But when you consider how exactly this establishment obtains the food and materials it needs for its day-to-day operations, the importance of logistics to our consumer lifestyle is undeniable. Logistics in simple words is the management of the processes of transferring goods or services from suppliers to consumers. In addition, the goal of logistics is to obtain the required amount of product at the lowest cost in a certain place and at a certain time. These activities include procurement, shipping, warehousing, material handling, protective packaging, inventory control, manufacturing orders, demand forecasting, marketing and customer service. Knowledge of logistics is necessary for people of different professions, especially a food technologist. Because food logistics is a wide range of activities associated with the efficient movement of raw materials from the source of supply to the beginning of the production line and finished products or semi-finished products, from the end of the production line to the point of consumption, according to customer requirements. Since a food technologist is a specialist responsible for the quality of food products at all stages: from receiving raw materials to packaging finished products, he must be competent in improving work productivity. Based on the formulation of the problem, one can understand that it can be completely solved only with the help of logistics. Because logistics, being inextricably linked with the production and economic activities of the enterprise, allows you to reduce costs or insure risks, for example, the risk of overstocking or shortage of finished products in warehouses. And in conclusion, I want to say that logistics plays an important role in my profession, because, ultimately, it depends on the actions of this service whether the customer will receive my product or not.

To answer this question, first you need to understand what procurement is. Pocurement is a procedure for obtaining goods, works or services, which consists in establishing the need for these goods, works and services, finding suppliers, concluding and enforcing an agreement for the supply of goods (performance of works or services). Purchasing an enterprise is one of the most important processes carried out in doing business. It is the procurement process that ensures the effective functioning of today's enterprises, significantly affects their competitiveness, efficiency and sustainability. Public procurement is a system through which state-owned companies look for suppliers of goods, works and services. Moreover, these purchases can be of any scale - from the purchase of pushpins to the construction of stadiums. Why participate in public procurement? Government procurement allows you to get a large and reliable customer who will pay for sure. It is also an opportunity to increase sales and expand the geography of trade. Rumor has it that only “insiders” manage to get government contracts, they say, “from the outside” it is not worth even trying. Don't believe this. If you produce a quality product or provide a qualified service, then there is every chance of getting a government order. And for this you do not need to spend money on advertising, but you will have to spend time and effort to figure out the details. Procurement logistics is a complex of operations aimed at supplying an enterprise with resources, the volume of finished products, and the movement of purchased material resources among departments within the enterprise and between them. The main goal of procurement logistics is to meet the needs of the company (production) in products (materials) with the highest possible economic efficiency. Procurement logistics tasks: 1) ensuring the procurement of material resources at the lowest prices and with the highest quality. By reducing the purchase prices of materials, you can significantly reduce the cost of production; 2) ensuring timely delivery of materials for production needs; 3) compliance with the terms of the procurement of raw materials and components; 4) determination of the optimal size of supplies; 5) compliance with the compliance of the number of supplies with the needs of production; 6) control over the quality of raw materials and components; 7) ensuring the storage of material resources (finished product) with minimal costs. Having learned the full range of procurement, let's draw conclusions. In my opinion, procurement is the main driving force of any enterprise. The efficiency of work and services depends entirely on procurement logistics. And if you do not prioritize purchasing, your business will not go far, but on the contrary, it will slide into a crisis abyss. Therefore, if you want a thriving sustainable business, pay sufficient attention to procurement. Good luck in your endeavors.

Currently, many large trade enterprises in the region are doing serious work to modernize and improve their procurement activities. The correct organization of procurement activities is the basis for the successful operation of any trade enterprise. Procurement is the acquisition of goods for various purposes for their final sale. In this case, trade enterprises are an effective assistant for manufacturers of goods, as they help to most fully and accurately meet the needs of the end consumer. By properly organizing procurement activities, the company not only contributes to meeting consumer demand, but also reduces the likelihood of commercial risk associated with the lack of sales of goods.

I entered the Kyrgyz State Technical University named after I. Razzakov and chose Logistics, because I like this profession, and it is going to develop very quickly. There are many directions in logistics such as: manufacturing, purchasing, business, transport and others. Each of which is related to each other. Procurement is a process whose purpose is to obtain goods, works, services of a certain quality in the required quantity at the required time and at the lowest price. Procurement is a very important component. Procurement is needed, since materials for production are needed, as well as quality services. To do this, you need to choose the right, good supplier. The supplier is selected either through competitive bidding or in writing. The most effective option is competitive bidding, since you can monitor the entire process and choose a supplier carefully. Purchasing from the right supplier allows you to meet the deadlines, quantity and quality of the purchased raw materials. You also need to make a plan: What to buy? Why to buy? How to transport? And so on. The state or company, conducting purchases, provides the citizens of their country with everything they need - they choose the most popular goods and services at reasonable prices. This is the main reason for purchasing. Purchases are carried out to buy a product or service that is not in their country for a variety of reasons. Procurement should be carried out because everyone needs quality goods or services at good prices. In conclusion, I want to say that procurement are important for business, entrepreneurship, that is, for everyone who wants to make money and for those who need good services and goods. Also, purchases allow you to expand your influence in the market, increase sales and ultimately develop. The importance of procurement is invaluable.

By properly organizing procurement activities, the company not only contributes to meeting consumer demand, but also reduces the likelihood of commercial risk associated with the lack of sales of goods. Procurement activities are aimed at ensuring that the company receives the necessary raw materials, materials, goods and services in a timely manner, in the right place, from a reliable and conscientious supplier, with good service and at a favorable price, in a timely manner.

Procurement is a form of placing an order for the supply of goods and services. The essence of the purchasing process is the exact opposite of the sales process. As a first-year student of Logistics, I believe that procurement is one of the most important business processes and any person who thinks how to make money and decides to open his own business in the field of trade needs to carry it out. Let me explain why: Procurement is an important link in any production or trading network. Enterprises buy materials, tools, final goods. Each link in the chain buys goods from suppliers, increases their value, and then sells them to further consumers. Procurement at any enterprise allows to: expanding the range of products, reducing resource costs. Participation in procurement is a good "tool" for increasing sales and expanding the market for your goods, works or services. Also, purchases give an impetus to small businesses and the opportunity to make a profit for further development. Procurement is needed to meet the needs of our state with you in various goods, works and services. The range of these needs is truly enormous, from paper clips to large industrial facilities. Such procurement have a positive effect both on the development of the state itself and on the development of business in general. The state, represented by state and municipal customers, receives the goods (work or service) it needs on the most favorable terms, and the supplier receives money. Speaking about public procurement, one can single out such a big positive moment as saving the state budget when purchasing a large batch of goods, which allows suppliers to make large wholesale sales. Another positive point is that in the implementation of centralized public procurement there is the possibility of more detailed state and public control. When carrying out public procurement, monitoring and audit can be applied to the activities of authorized bodies. In summary, the purpose of procurement is to ensure the company has a reliable supply of materials. Based on this, the procurement tasks are as follows: - creation of a reliable and continuous material flow to the company; - close interaction with the departments using these materials, studying their requests; - search for suitable suppliers, close interaction with them and the formation of beneficial relationships; - purchase of the necessary materials of acceptable quality, and the right quantity, and a guarantee of their delivery at the right time and place; - ensuring reasonable prices and delivery terms; - pursuing a suitable policy of stocks and investments in them; - fast movement of materials through supply chains, forwarding deliveries if necessary, monitoring current conditions, including price changes, shortages, new products, etc. From my point of view, the importance of procurement cannot be overestimated, and purchases play an important role not only in enterprises, but also in the whole state.
