Introduction. The globalization character of the Russian economy requires the design of an effective transport and logistic infrastructure. If a transport complex is provided with a rolling stock with the application of quantitative and qualitative characteristics, it determines the rendered logistic service level. The high level of the logistic service quality promotes the effective physical distribution of production. Purpose: to analyze the logistic flows of R&D results at mechanical engineering enterprises for management rationalization of the procurement activity of an enterprise. Methods. The authors used an information array of the condition of a transport complex. Its statistical processing on the basis of a logical method comprised the evidence base and allowed considering the situation on the vehicle market for the organization of transportations and development of the turnover of goods. Results. The procurement activity of the Russian transport complex was considered using such criteria as the owners of vehicles and market operators. The goods turnover structure is given. Factors used for forecasting of the railway vehicle flows for goods transportation are shown. Conclusion. Our analysis of R&D results in the sphere of transport mechanical engineering will form a basis for decision making on improvement of the purchases process with regard to the quantitative and qualitative requirements and the commercial interests of the vehicle owners. It will also allow designing optimal routes and a technology of goods transportation.
