Methodological Foundations of a Project of Organizing Construction and Development of Territories in a System of Integrated Territorial Development

Introduction. This study is dedicated to development of methodological foundations of territorial development construction project (TDCP) as a tool for managing integrated territorial development (ITD). The existing approaches to construction organization based on the traditional object-by-object construction organization project (COP) fail to provide necessary coordination of resources and logistics. The aim of the study is to develop the theoretical foundations and structure of TDCP and structure of ITD, ensuring effective management of construction processes within the framework of ITD projects and master plans.

Materials and Methods. The research is based on the analysis of theoretical approaches to construction organization, systematization of experience in implementing integrated territorial development projects and identification of the drawbacks of the existing methodologies. Methods of system analysis, comparative analysis, structural and functional modeling and generalization of the theoretical provisions were used.

Research Results. The structure of TDCP has been developed, including the external contour (transport accessibility, engineering infrastructure, engineering protection of a territory, logistics links, natural and territorial conditions, institutional environment) and an internal contour (production facilities, temporary infrastructure, internal engineering networks, transport networks, labor resources, stages of construction). The mechanism of converting the constraints of the external contour into the internal one and compensatory measures ensuring the sustainability of the project is substantiated.

Discussion and Conclusion. The developed TDCP methodology serves as the theoretical foundation for organizing construction within integrated territorial development projects. The introduction of the concept of external and internal contours enables one to systematically account for the limitations and capabilities of a territory, ensuring efficient allocation of resources and coordination of construction processes.
