Оборонний менеджмент: підходи до управління процесами оборонного планування

State policy in the military sphere, defense and military construction is now aimed at creating modern mobile and combat-ready defense forces that will be respected in society and by foreign partners and international organizations, together with other state institutions will ensure comprehensive defense of Ukraine, protection of its sovereignty and territory integrity and inviolability. Numerous scientific publications substantiate various models and the need to increase the effectiveness of defense management in the current environment of managing defense planning processes, especially security, in order to achieve certain strategic goals of defense reform and bring these processes closer to standards adopted in NATO armies. The purpose of the article is to find effective approaches to the formation of a model for managing defense planning processes, bringing them closer to modern needs and the principles and standards adopted in the armies of developed NATO member states. Defense planning is carried out in order to ensure the state's defense capabilities by determining the priorities and directions of development of defense forces, their capabilities, armaments and military equipment, infrastructure, training of troops (forces), as well as developing appropriate concepts, programs and plans taking into account real and potential threats in military sphere and financial and economic capabilities of the state. It is carried out using the capability-based planning method, which aims to develop them in the long term. The defense planning process includes: capability planning; capacity development programming; budgeting and resource management; implementation of programs and plans. In order to qualitatively prepare and implement effective defense management for the management of defense planning processes, it is expedient to improve the methodology of this work in practice, to bring these processes closer to the principles and standards adopted in the armies of NATO member states.
