Abstract
In the military industrial complex (MIC) procurement has not yet been built with the maximum efficiency of procurement procedures, despite the significant financial flows through this system. A brief review of existing approaches to assessing the effectiveness of the procurement activities of the military industry enterprises made it possible to identify problematic aspects in this area, including the limitedness of the approved methods that do not take into account the totality of factors affecting the result, oriented mainly to budget savings. As a result of applying one of the methods, a comparative evaluation of the purchasing activity of two military industry enterprises was carried out: AO NPK Uralvagonzavod and AO Omsktransmash which is a part of the corporation, during which it was concluded that it is necessary to build a unified system of indicators, allowing the most complete assessment of the effectiveness of the procurement activities of the military industry enterprise, as well as the fact that the procurement management system of AO Omsktransmash is less efficient than the AO NPK Uralvagonzavod and requires improvement.
